Tour of Castletown House.

Castletown House is set amongst beautiful eighteenth century parklands on the banks of the Liffey in Celbridge, County Kildare. The house was built around 1722 for the speaker of the Irish House of Commons, William Connolly, to designs by several renowned architects. It was intended to reflect Connolly's power and to serve as a venue for political entertaining on a grand scale. The estate flourished under William Connolly's great nephew Thomas and his wife Lady Louisa who devoted much of her life to improving her home. Today, Castletown is home to a significant collection of paintings, furnishings and objects d'art. Highlights include three eighteenth century Murano glass chandeliers and the only intact eighteenth century print room in the country. It is still the most splendid Palladian style country house in Ireland.
