Step into a scene from history with our exclusive prints of Athlone Castle, a testament to the Anglo-Norman era's impact on the Irish landscape. This storied castle, commissioned by King John of England and brought to life by his Irish justiciar, Bishop John De Gray of Norwich, marks the dawn of Athlone's transformation. While it stands not as the first castle to grace this historic site, its longevity surpasses all others.

Our prints depict the castle's magnificent preservation, showcasing a blend of its original 1210 architecture with subsequent enhancements made to meet the evolving demands of warfare. Athlone Castle bears the distinctive marks of a Napoleonic fortification, having been intricately redesigned during that epoch to protect the strategic Shannon crossing.

Each print in our collection is a portal to the past, capturing the castle's enduring legacy and the architectural dialogue between its ancient foundations and later military innovations. Own a piece of this resilient heritage, and let the walls of Athlone Castle tell their centuries-old story right from your wall.
