Part of Irish Capuchin Archives
An image of a woman kissing the Blarney Stone. Blarney Castle is a fifteenth-century tower house located in County Cork. According to legend, kissing the stone (which is built into the battlements of the castle) bestows upon the person the gift of eloquence, flattery, and persuasiveness. Though earlier fortifications were built on the site, the current castle structure was constructed in 1446 by the MacCarthys of Muskerry, a branch of the Kings of Desmond.
