The castle is amazing and there is something to discover everywhere

King John's Castle (Irish: Caisleán Luimnigh) also known as Limerick Castle is a 13th-century castle located on King's Island in Limerick, Ireland, next to the River Shannon. Although the site dates back to 922 when the Vikings lived on the Island, the castle itself was built on the orders of King John of England in 1200. Some of the external walls, towers and fortifications remain, and the site is open for visitors. The remains of a Viking settlement were uncovered during archaeological excavations at the site in 1900. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_John%27s_Castle_(Limerick)

There is an entry fee to see inside. The grounds and the church are interesting outside for those unfamiliar with more than 300 years of history.

The Shannon Bridge, also termed the "New Bridge", as it is the most recent of the three bridges across the River Shannon in the city centre. It was built in the late 1980s. Nicknamed the "Whistling Bridge" in the time after its opening, as until mesh was retro-fitted to the railings along the bridge, the wind up the estuary caused a whistling noise.

Aside from the Dockers sculpture, most of Duhan’s work as an artist revolves around the naked human figure. He remembers his time at Limerick City School of Art with fondness, he says, but he is mostly self-taught, acquiring his skills as and when needed to fulfil his vision. From 1982, he taught at the National College of Art and Design, but he retired six years ago, when he turned sixty. “I used to finish work at the college around 4.30pm, then I’d go to my studio in Temple Bar and work away until midnight, unless I caught a pint on the way home. Now I have my own studio at home, and I can work away all day if I want.”
