Leixlip Castle was built by Adam de Hereford in 1172 on a rock overlooking the River Liffey. The building was added to over the centuries and has been continuously inhabited for 800 years.
The Hon. Desmond Guinness bought the castle in 1958 and the contents include many examples of Irish furniture and paintings.
