Rock of Dunamaise - Portlaoise, Ireland


The Rock of Dunamaise is an imposing and magnificent example of the remains of a Celtic fortification overlooking the valley of the O' Moores.  It has a colourful history boasting ownership by Strongbow in 1170 and becoming the Norman's most important fortification. In the fourteenth
century it was burned at least twice by the Irish and later ownership went to the Earl of Thomand. It
eventually fell into decay in 1795 leaving spectacular remains.  Standing at over 45 meters in height, the ruin dominates the landscape.
