State Eyes Dunguaire Castle Takeover | Galway News
Description
The government is seriously considering taking over Dunguaire Castle in Kinvara, marking a major step toward its future preservation. After years of stalled plans and private ownership, the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, alongside the Office of Public Works, are now exploring state ownership due to the castle’s immense heritage value. Local advocates, including the Kinvara Heritage Group, are cautiously optimistic, hoping this move will finally unlock a clear restoration and reopening plan — especially as winter looms and the castle’s condition remains a pressing concern. With global support for the campaign, this renewed government interest could be the catalyst the castle needs to return to public view.
