Wexford Day at Ballyhack Castle

Ballyhack Castle is located on a steep slope in a commanding position overlooking Waterford estuary. The castle, a large tower house, is thought to have been built c. 1450 by the Knights Hospitallers of St. John, one of the two great military orders founded at the beginning of the 12th century at the time of the Crusades.

What is happening on Wexford Day: Some of the local fishermen will be in the castle on Wexford Day telling stories, mending nets and explaining what they are doing, talking about the life of a fisherman and singing sea shanties
