Blarney Castle was built in 1446. Over the years, it has become an intrinsic symbol of Ireland and Irish heritage. The Blarney Stone is without a doubt the most famous part of Blarney Castle. Also called the legendary Stone of Eloquence, it is located at the top of the castle’s tower. Legend has it that if you kiss it, you’ll be struck with eternal eloquence and you will never be at a loss for words.
