About Antrim
- Antrim Round Tower, which stands in the grounds of Antrim Castle, is one of the best-preserved round towers in Ireland — a 9th or 10th-century stone tower that was built as a refuge and bell tower for the monastery that stood on the site. The tower, which stands 28 metres high and has a doorway set 3 metres above the ground to prevent easy access, is one of the most distinctive examples of early Christian architecture in Ulster, and it gives a vivid impression of the monastic landscape of early medieval Ireland. The tower is one of only two round towers in Northern Ireland, and it is one of the most important early Christian monuments in County Antrim.
- Lough Neagh, the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles, covers an area of 388 square kilometres and is the source of much of Northern Ireland's drinking water. The lough, which is surrounded by five of Northern Ireland's six counties, is one of the most important wildlife habitats in Ireland, supporting internationally significant populations of migratory birds including whooper swans, golden plovers, and tufted ducks. The lough is also famous for its eels — the Lough Neagh eel fishery, which has been operating for centuries, is one of the most important in Europe, and the eels are exported to markets in the Netherlands and Germany.
- Shane's Castle, on the shores of Lough Neagh a few miles from Antrim, is the ancestral home of the O'Neill family — one of the most powerful Gaelic Irish dynasties, whose chiefs were the Kings of Ulster for centuries before the Plantation of Ulster in the early 17th century. The castle, which was built in the 18th century on the site of an earlier O'Neill stronghold, was destroyed by fire in 1816 and has been a ruin ever since. The estate, which is now a nature reserve and tourist attraction, preserves a remarkable collection of wildlife including red deer, fallow deer, and a wide variety of birds.
