Cahir Castle is one of Ireland’s largest and best-preserved castles. It stands proudly on a rocky island on the River Suir. The castle was was built in the thirteenth century and served as the stronghold of the powerful Butler family. So effective was its design that it was believed to be impregnable, but it finally fell to the earl of Essex in 1599 when heavy artillery was used against it for the first time. During the Irish Confederate Wars it was besieged twice more. At the time of building, Cahir Castle was at the cutting edge of defensive castle design and much of the original structure remains. https://heritageireland.ie/places-to-visit/cahir-castle/

Nenagh Castle (Irish: Caisleán an Aonaigh or Caisleán Aonach Urmhumhan) is a tower house in the town of Nenagh in the northern part of County Tipperary, Ireland. The round tower is over 30 metres high and its diameter at the base is 16 metres. It is one of the finest round towers in Ireland. Its crenellated crown and the arched windows below were added in the mid-19th century. Although these additions do not reflect the true historical character of the castle, they established Nenagh Castle's iconic status. It appears in many local club and institution logos, including that of Nenagh Town Council. The Norman keep was built by Theobald Walter, 1st Baron Butler, around 1200; His son, Theobald de Botiller, had it completed around 1220. In 1861, Bishop Michael Flannery had the row of clerical windows and the crenellated crown built because the keep was to be the bell tower of a cathedral designed by Edward Pugin. This cathedral, however, was never built. From 2009 to 2013, the castle and its grounds were extensively restored. The aim was to establish Nenagh Castle as the main tourist attraction in the area. Today, the round tower is open to the public. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nenagh_Castle

Farney Castle in County Tipperary is the only round tower in Ireland occupied as a family home. The first castle was built at Farney in 1185 and this would have been a timbered structure. The present round tower was built in 1495 by Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormond and it was part of a defensive system created by the Butlers to protect their land in Tipperary. The Butlers were in Farney Castle for 500 years, but in 1536 the castle was confiscated by King Henry VIII of England. He returned the lands again to the Butlers in 1538 when he married Anne Boleyn who was the daughter of James, 3rd Earl of Ormond. Subsequently the castle was occupied for short periods by two other English monarchs namely King James 1st from 1617 - 1625 and King George 1st from 1716 -1721. https://www.discoverireland.ie/tipperary/farney-castle

Burncourt Castle is a fortified house and a National Monument in County Tipperary, Ireland. The castle was originally known as Everard's Castle, and was built by Richard Everard, 1st Baronet (d. 1650), son of politician and judge Sir John Everard. When Richard married Catherine Plunkett in 1620, his father awarded him a large estate around the River Tar. Around 1639 Sir Richard some of his land and began to build a fortified house. It was complete in 1641, and had 26 gables and seven chimneys. Archeological investigation found a cow skeleton in a pit that extended under the east wall of the castle. The cow appeared to have been killed and dismembered and left as a protective votive offering – the flanks were placed next to each other and the head placed on the upper backbone. The Everards took up residence just as the Irish Rebellion of 1641 began. In 1642 Sir Richard joined the Catholic Confederates at Kilkenny and became a member of the Supreme Council. Sir Richard's wife Catherine remained at the castle. In 1649, as Oliver Cromwell's Roundheads advanced on Everard's Castle, Lady Catherine burned it down, earning it the name of the Burned Court. Sir Richard Everard went on fight at the Siege of Limerick (1650–51), but was captured and hung in 1651 by Henry Ireton. Burncourt was abandoned. According to tradition Burncourt was seven years in building, seven years lived in and seven days burning. In the early 18th century, the painter Anthony Chearnley built a house adjoining the Burncourt ruin. The excavation also showed that there was no remaining debris from the castle burning, meaning that the roof slates and lead flashings were salvaged/looted for use elsewhere. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burncourt_Castle
