Enniskillen Castle

Enniskillen Castle, situated beside the River Erne in County Fermanagh, was built almost 600 years ago by Gaelic Maguires. It is thought that the turrets and massive fortress walls were built to defend the land in Northern Ireland in the early 1400s. In the 17th century, it became an English garrison fort and later served as part of a military barracks.

Two museums that highlight and preserve Fermanagh culture are now housed in the castle. The history of the region is presented in the Fermanagh County Museum, and military equipment from the 17th century is on exhibit at the Inniskillings Museum. There are also special exhibitions throughout the year. Spend some time exploring the two museums and the well-kept grounds.
