Charles Fort Kinsale below a painted sky

Made with Tubes of Passion in Ireland

Charles Fort is a trace Italien fortification, a bastion fort with one section of the curtain wall built in star fashion. It is located on the water’s edge, at the southern end of the village of Summer Cove, on Kinsale harbour, County Cork, Ireland

One of Europe’s best-preserved star-shaped artillery forts, this vast 17th-century fortification would be worth a visit for its spectacular views alone.
