"Bunratty Castle is the last remaining castle on this site which began as a Viking trading camp in 970. Built in 1425 and restored in 1954, the castle is furnished with art and tapestries from the 15th century. Today, the castle is part of the 26-acre Bunratty Folk Park, a recreated medieval village with farmhouses, shops, and homes, from humble houses to an elegant Georgian residence. Guests can experience a four-course medieval banquet accompanied by the Bunratty Castle singers in the castle's Great Hall." - Travel + Leisure Editors
