Killeen Castle, Dunsany, Medieval castle estate in Dunsany, Ireland.

The castle features four stone towers surrounding a central structure, set within a 600-acre estate with ancient woodlands and a golf course.

The original Norman fortification was established by Geoffrey de Cusack in 1181, serving as the family seat until its transfer to the Plunkett dynasty in 1399.

The castle functions as a venue for Irish social events, offering facilities for weddings and gatherings in its grand halls and surrounding gardens.

Located 30 minutes from Dublin Airport, the estate includes luxury lodges, the Sixteen restaurant, and The Kiln lounge bar for dining options.

The castle grounds contain a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course that hosted the 2011 Solheim Cup, marking Ireland's first time hosting this tournament.
