Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2000 / July 11 2000: Trim Castle restored to more than its former glory

Trim Castle, covering approximately 1.75 hectares, the late 12th century castle - the largest such structure in Ireland will be officially reopened this week after an extensive restoration programme which has taken five years and Ł3 million to complete provided by European structural funding. A rediscovered great hall and its undercroft, the site of a harbour and an intact medieval laneway are among the features of the newly reopened Trim Castle in Co Meath.
