Audley's Castle is a medieval castle located near Strangford in County Down, Northern Ireland. The castle, along with its picturesque surroundings, has historical significance and has also been featured as a filming location in the popular television series "Game of Thrones."

Audley's Castle dates back to the 15th century and was originally built by the Audley family. The castle served as a fortified residence, and its strategic location near Strangford Lough provided both defensive advantages and scenic views.

The castle features typical medieval architecture with stone walls and turrets. The structure has undergone various modifications over the centuries, reflecting the changing needs and styles of different eras.

Audley's Field:

The castle is surrounded by Audley's Field, a large open area where agricultural activities may have taken place in medieval times. The combination of the castle and its expansive grounds contributes to the site's historical and visual appeal.

Game of Thrones Filming Location:

Audley's Castle gained recognition as a filming location for HBO’s "Game of Thrones." In the series, the castle was used to depict the fictional Riverrun, a key stronghold in the Riverlands. Riverrun is the ancestral seat of House Tully and plays a significant role in the political and military dynamics of Westeros. The strategic location and the medieval architecture of the castle provided an authentic backdrop for the political machinations and battles that unfolded in the Riverlands storyline.

While Audley's Castle is privately owned and not regularly open to the public, the surrounding landscape and views are accessible. You can enjoy the scenery and appreciate the historical and cultural significance of the site.
