Thurles Castle

Highlight • Castle

There is nothing left of walls that enclosed the town, or of the manor known as Durlas Castle and later the Croak Castle on the west end of the town.

What has survived is two tower houses the first of these being Black Castle (shown in the photo) and the second is hidden behind housing in the centre of the town.

It makes an impressive sight amongst the smaller modern buildings.
