8 Amazing Castles to Visit Near Dublin
"Drimnagh Castle is one of the few medieval castles that is still standing in Dublin. The structure dates back to the 12th century and was originally built by the Barnewell family, who arrived in Ireland with Strongbow. The Norman castle can be found in the suburb of Drimnagh, and it is worth the trip to the south side to see the pretty stone castle—which happens to be the only castle in Ireland with a moat."

It fell into disuse and disrepair in the 1960s only to be rediscovered thirty years later, and from then on the restoration of this hidden gem began. The castle has been open to the public since 1996 and has been offering guided tours since."
