Trim Castle
Explore Ireland's largest Norman castle, a formidable fortress by the River Boyne.
Overview
The Anglo-Normans wanted to make a statement after they arrived in Ireland in 1172. That came in the enormous Trim Castle — a 20-sided fortress with vast grounds stretching in every direction.
Such an imposing figure it makes, Trim Castle was used extensively during the production of Braveheart, serving as a backdrop for both the Scottish and English castles. Take a guided tour to get the full experience.
