Construction of Gimghoul Castle


The castle was built to house social events for the Order of Doomgal/Gimghoul. The architecture is very distinct; it isn’t common to the area, and the foreign and exotic aura surrounding the menacing structure separates the society and adds to its mystery. The Gimghoul Castle was built on the site of Peter Dromgoole’s legendary duel, and his remains (according to the legend) are somewhere in the surrounding woods. The rock on which he died is also located on the property. Although the Castle is now only used for social events, it remains a symbol of remembrance of the story that led to the creation of the Order and Peter Dromgoole's short-lived life. -Stella Stromeier
