The most beautiful are the Rock of Cashel, Malahide Castle, Ross, and Dunseverick.
One of the castles - Ward Castle near Belfast, played the role of the Stark family seat, the powerful fortress of Winterfell, in the film adaptation of "A Song of Ice and Fire" by George R.R. Martin - "Game of Thrones". In Martin's book, south of the Wall, stretch the estates of the Starks - the former Kings in the North. Northern Ireland provided locations for the scenes filmed in the Starks' homeland. Ward Castle was built in the 18th century and is characterized by intricate, eclectic finishes.
