Lackeen Castle is sometimes open to the public but you can still appreciate the ruins and bawn wall from the roadside. It is said that the Stow Missal, a small illuminated manuscript dating from the late 8th/early 9th century, was found here during building work in the 18th century. It is now kept in the Royal Irish Academy.
