The Rock of Cashel & Hore Abbey

Back to Main Gallery

We stopped at the Rock of Cashel and Hore Abbey on Sunday August 26th. This was the largest castle that we saw on the trip. The Rock of Cashel and the accompanying Hore Abbey are located in Cashel between Dublin and Cork. It is an enormous well preserved structure with ornate details and amazing views of the surrounding valley. The castle sits atop a large hill, which adds to its splendor.
