Parkes Castle
The splendour of Parkes Castle is immediately evident as you drive around Lough Gill. Once an important stronghold of the local O'Rourke family, rulers of Breffni, Parks Castle has been recently restored to its original seventeenth century style. A guided tour of the castle is provided every hour. There is also an individual side show entitled 'Stone by stone' in four languages. Also in the castle there is a traditional forge as would be found in the 17th century.
