To enjoy the beauty and history of Aughnanure Castle, head right past the city of Galway in Western Ireland. The castle is found in County Galway, in the province of Connacht.
This landmark is almost directly due west of Dublin Airport, which makes getting there by car incredibly simple.
Hop on the M6 right after you leave the airport, and stay on it until you see signs for the N6 right outside of Galway, which takes you north and right to Aughnanure Castle.
Here are 10 fun facts about this amazing Irish landmark. Hopefully they will entice you to pay a visit in person!
But if that is not possible, you can always use them to impress your friends with your knowledge of one of the most-visited attractions in Ireland.
