King John's Castle is a medieval castle located in Limerick City, Ireland. It was built in the 13th century on the orders of King John, who was the King of England and Lord of Ireland at the time. The castle was built on the site of an earlier Viking settlement, and it was designed to defend the city and the River Shannon from attack. It was originally constructed as a simple motte-and-bailey fortification, but it was later expanded and strengthened with the addition of walls, towers, and other defensive features. King John's Castle has played an important role in Irish history, and it has been the site of many significant events over the centuries. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction, and visitors can explore the castle and learn about its history through interactive exhibits and guided tours.
