O'Brien's Castle is thought to have been built in 14th century making it one of the oldest ruins on the Aran Islands. It was built for the O’Brien family, a powerful family who had already ruled the island of Inisheer for several years. It had quite the colourful history changing hands many times as the site of many sieges/battles over the years before falling into ruins. The Castle is located on one of the highest points of the island and grandly overlooks the beach, pier, and ruins below. (Inisheer Island, Ireland)
