Irish round towers, also called Cloigtheach, bell tower come from the middle age and were originally bell towers. Their use varied over the centuries and circumstances. Mainly from Irish origins, two can also be found in Scotland and one on the Isle of Man. . They were mainly built near cemeteries and monasteries with their door facing the west doorway of the church. . The purpose of the towers remain a bit unclear. One hypothesis suggests that the tower were used to store religious relics. . . . . . . . #ig_ireland #loveireland #irishbuilding #irishtower #medievaltimes #mefievalages #stones #tower #middleagearchitecture #ancientarchitecture #discoverireland #irishhistory #cloigtheach #roundtower #outlander #viking #monastery #glendalough #wicklowmountains #wicklow #eire #irishroundtower #vestife (at Wicklow Mountains) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAA0WDYgXae/?igshid=1vrxqu1jjv4cw

Cliff of Moher, O'Brien's tower in the Burren, County Clare, Ireland. . The O'Brien's tower is the tallest point of the Cliff of Moher, making it the most amazing place to discover the surrounding landscape. Located near the small village of Liscannor it was built in 1835 by the local landlord and MP Sir Cornellius O'Brien. It was originally built to serve as a teahouse it became an observation tower for English tourists : "Strangers visiting the magnificent scenery of this neighborhood". .

A castle Old and Grey I never see a castle That is gaunt and grey and grim, But my thoughts at once go backwards To the past so misty and dim. . To the time when tower and turet, Kept watch far over the vale, And along the surrounding draw-bridge Rock knights in their suits of mail. . I see the sunshine glancing On the helmet, pennon, and spear, And hear from the depth of the forest, A bugle calling clear. #ig_scotland #scottishhighlands #scotland #scottishcastle #castles_oftheworld #castletale #castles #eileandonancastle #eileandonan #hiddenscotland #medievaltimes #castlelife #scotlandcollective #scottishhighlands #highlandsofscotland #skye #isleofskye #discoverscotland #scottishstyle (at Eilean Donan Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fLCK_AMH_/?igshid=1levrytte44m4

Since I was a kid I always loved watching "Secret garden" (1998). It probably influenced me in visiting castles and gardens. . This garden reminds me of this moment when Mary found her secret garden, behind wild vegetation. . This Altamont garden is based in Ireland, near Carlow & I try to visit every time I'm in Ireland. It holds secret places, wild yet elegant vegetation. A true travel through the history of the estate and the land and wilorking farm. . . . . . . #ig_ireland #irishlandscape #irishgarden #irishnature #secretgarden #walledgarden #wildgarden #irishblogger #irishlife #loveireland #evergreen #greengarden #ireland #visitireland #carlow #kilkenny #estate #stones #oldestate #medieval #renaissancestyle #naturelover #goexplore #mysecretgarden #lovenature #altamont #altamontgarden (at Altamont Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_P02cOHAjK/?igshid=18h00go9azhni
