Friday's Photo: Dunguaire Castle, County Galway, Ireland


Since today is St. Patrick's Day, I wanted to post something from last year's Ireland trip. Pictured is Dunguaire Castle, sometimes seen as Kinvara Castle. This castle is just outside Kinvara, and although I made several trips to Ireland and always visited Kinvara, I only stopped at the castle on this last trip. 


As we walked the grounds and inside the castle, I wondered about my husband's Quinn ancestors - they lived just down the road and could probably see it from their home. The castle was in ruins when his grandfather lived nearby. Had he walked the same paths?


The castle has a fascinating history. Read the signs pictured below or check out this informative post - Dunguaire Castle – Celtic Legends and Celtic Revival.
