Sobre
Fatos rápidos: The walls stretch over 2 kilometers and once fortified the entire medieval city center. You can still see original towers and gateways standing proud, surviving centuries of history and strife.
Destaques: Visitors can walk along parts of the walls, imagining the echo of medieval sentries and the clash of swords in the narrow battlements. The Bones of the Keep, a chilling display near the walls, shares stories of sieges and ancient Limerick warriors.

- Bring a camera for panoramic shots from the towers during golden hour.
- Avoid midday on weekends to escape the biggest crowds.
