Enniscorthy Castle
Review
This 13th Century castle, based here in Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, really does set the scene as you travel back well over 700 years in history. Having so many residents, from Normans Knights, Irish Rebels and local merchants and their families and not forgetting the not so popular English Army, if these walls could talk, we wouldn’t have enough time in our lifetime to listen to them. 66 This castle’s checkered past is one that totally enthralled me and I literally could have spent hours here, but unfortunately when I visit these attractions, often I am stuck for time. I did however manage to stick around long enough to ascertain that the staff here are not only very passionate about the place they come to work every day, but they are also very knowledgeable about the subjects of which they speak about to the many thousands of visitors the Castle gets every year.
