Castletown House
Castletown House
Castletown, as Ireland’s first and largest Palladian style house, is an important part of Ireland’s architectural heritage. Erected between 1722 and c.1729 for William Conolly, Speaker of the Irish House of Commons, Castletown House was designed to reflect its owner’s power and to serve as a venue for political entertaining on a large scale.
