GALWAYS HISTORICAL ATTRACTIONS:
Portumna (Port Omna in Irish - meaning port of the oak), where the River Shannon enters Lough Derg. The town is served by Portumna Bridge, the largest 20th Century swivel bridge in Europe. Completed in 1911, this is an historic crossing point between counties Galway and Tipperary.
Portumna Castle was built before 1618 by the 4th Earl of Clanricarde and was the main seat of the de Burgo family for over 200 years before being gutted by fire in 1826. Today, the ground floor of the great semi-fortified house is open to the public. The recently restored 17th Century walled kitchen garden features an abundance of organically planted fruit trees, herbs and vegetables. The formal geometrically laid out gardens are splendid. The castle is a mere stroll from the hotel in Galway and special group discounts and guided tours are available.
Dominican Friary: Standing close to the castle is a ruined medieval priory, once dominated by a tower now half its height. To the north of the church is an attractive cloister, partially restored in 1954. The friary was dissolved at the reformation and later came into the possession of the Earl of Clonrickarde, original owner of Portumna Castle.
Galway East Ecclesiastical Trails: The trail is made up of two seperate driving routes and take in 21 of the regions oldest and best preserved religious sites. Maps are available to download from Galway East Tourism's website while further information and audio guides are available at local Tourist Information Centres.
