Blarney Castle

Blarni, Irska

One of the most famous castles on the island, Blarney is a romantic partial ruin set in glorious countryside. Built on the site of a 10th century wooden structure, the castle grounds are filled with wooded hollows, strange rock formations and a glistening flowing river. Croften Clark, a 19th century writer, described it as “indeed a fairy scene… I know of no place where I could sooner imagine these little elves holding their moon-light revelry”Blarney was built nearly 600 years ago by the great chieftain Cormac MacCarthy, Lord of Muskerry, known as “The Strong”. While much of the structure is in ruins, there is no lack of things to see here.
