Ireland - Trim Castle

When you visit Ireland (and I say when because you DEFINITELY need to find a way to visit!) you MUST visit Trim Castle.  Trim Castle isn't far from Dublin, so when you're in that area, take a relatively short drive to the town of Trim where the castle is located.  Trim Castle has intact walls, as well as a renovated keep that offers tours.

It costs a couple of euros per person to enter inside the walls and an additional euro or two to tour the keep.  For a family of four it cost us somewhere between 10-12 euros to do both, so not too bad.  Definitely tour the keep.  It is awesome!  It's a guided tour and you will learn much about the keep.  If the weather is cooperating, and it did when we toured, you can walk on the top of the keep and get a wonderful view of Trim.  

To conclude, WHEN you visit Ireland, Trim Castle is a MUST see.  It was also used in several scenes in the movie Braveheart!
