Coast Guard Boathouse, Belfast

Just few miles from the Coast Guard Boathouse, Belfast and well worth a visit! 🏰

Carrickfergus Castle (Northern Ireland) is a stunning Norman stronghold with over 800 years of history, standing proudly on the shores of Belfast Lough. Built in 1177 by John de Courcy, it is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in Ireland and has played a vital role in the region’s history. 🏰

Throughout the centuries, Carrickfergus Castle has been a center of power, withstanding sieges and battles during Norman, Tudor, and even World War II times. Its sturdy stone walls, towers, and defensive features are a testament to medieval military architecture. Visitors can explore the castle’s interior, learning about its history through interactive exhibits and guided tours. 🕰️⚔️

The picturesque setting of the castle, overlooking the lough and surrounded by charming town streets, makes it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and photographers alike. 🌊📸
