Castletown House

Castletown House extends across three floors, featuring grand staircases, intricate plasterwork, and stone facades along the banks of River Liffey.

Built between 1722 and 1729 for William Conolly, Speaker of the Irish House of Commons, this residence became a model for Irish country houses.

The Print Room contains the only complete collection of 18th-century prints in Ireland, displayed in their original decorative wall arrangements.

Visitors can access the house through regular bus services from Dublin city center to Celbridge village or via Hazelhatch railway station.

Three original Murano glass chandeliers from the 1700s still illuminate the main reception rooms of this Georgian period residence.
