Carlingford history tours

Come, Explore Listen & Learn

Enjoy a guided tour with us and discover Ireland’s medieval past. Carlingford is a fine example of a medieval walled town built at the time of the Normans in the 12th century.

Our guides will take you on a tour of the historic remains, including Carlingford Castle. We meet you at the Station House and begin the tour at Carlingford Castle standing guard majestically on a rocky outcrop over the town. This introduces the story of our historic town.
