Dunluce Castle, a medieval ruin in Northern Ireland, perches dramatically on a cliff overlooking the sea. Originally built by the McQuillan family in the 13th century, it later became the stronghold of Clan MacDonnell. Legends abound, like the tale of the kitchen collapsing into the sea, but parts of the castle still stand tall. Abandoned in 1690 after the Battle of the Boyne, Dunluce Castle now attracts visitors with its stunning views and rich history, making it a must-see for anyone exploring the rugged beauty of County Antrim.
