Dublin Castle

Constructed in 1230 for King John of England, the Dublin Castle is a beautiful medieval structure. The Castle was built as a residence for the King and a place to protect the King's jewels. Since Ireland became independent from Britain in 1922, the Castle has served for ceremonial purposes, such as the Irish President's inaugurations.
