Enniscorthy Castle explores the development of the Castle and town from its earliest Anglo-Norman origins, with a special focus on the Castle as a family home.
The exhibition also explores the 1916 Rising in Enniscorthy, (only town to rise outside of Dublin), as well as the work of the renowned Irish furniture designer and architect Eileen Gray (born in 1878 just outside the town). In February 2009, "Fauteil aux Dragons", an armchair made by Gray between 1917-1919 (formerly part of the Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé collection) was sold at auction in Paris for €21.9 million, setting a record for 20th century decorative art.
The roof of the castle is also accessible, with spectacular views of the surrounding buildings, Vinegar Hill, and countryside. Note that access to the roof is only possible on guided tours.
Group sizes on tour is limited to 25.
On occasion the Castle may be temporarily closed due to a private tour booking, training, etc. - please contact us in advance of your visit to avoid disappointment.
Last admission is 30 minutes before closing. Our facilities include: craft and gift shop, toilets and baby changing area, wheelchair access to all floors (including roof) , and visitor information point (tourist office for town).
