Trim Castle
Would you like to visit a castle which became part of 'Braveheart?' Yes, it was used in the filming of the blockbuster movie! As you approach, the stonework is so well constructed and the walls so impressively built, that you get a real feeling of Ireland in the Middle Ages; when you see all the turrets, you nearly feel that some Hawk eyes are peering out at you from the openings! For this is a real castle, and the Masons who built it, were craftsmen reaching for their place in history. And when you enter, you will feel the tides of history sweeping by; then look out at the beautiful River Boyne and you will feel like a priveleged member of a film club being given a sneak preview of the vistas of County Meath! If I were part of a real Star Trek crew, this castle would tempt me to transport back in time to the Middle Ages. On a more practical note, the guided tours last about an hour.
