Pallas Castle

Pallas Castle, located near Tynagh, in Co Gaway is one of the best preserved tower houses in Ireland, with both its tower and bawn in a good state of preservation.

It was built by the Burke family around 1500 and is now a National Monument. The tower itself is five stories high and is surrounded by a strong bawn wall, with a two-storey gatehouse guarding the entrance.
