Bunratty Castle, County Clare has had a dramatic and turbulent history. First built back in the 13th Century, it has changed hands many times, usually violently, during the many periods of friction between the native Irish of Thomond and the Norman and Anglo-Norman intruders. The Castle has been destroyed at least eight or nine times over its 800-year history. Today, the castle stands peacefully in delightful grounds, the houses and cottages of the folk park spread out at the foot of its massive walls, much in the way that the cottages and crofts of old would have clustered around its base. The collections of artifacts in Bunratty Castle are protected by the Gort Furniture Trust and are managed on a daily basis by Shannon Heritage, a subsidiary company of Shannon Development. The Castle welcomes thousands of visitors daily all year round.
