Roscommon Town
Roscommon is a small county town located in Co. Roscommon and is paradise for those that are enthusiasts of water related activities.
The town is home to several historical sites which include
Roscommon castle that was built in 1269 only to be taken by Hugh O'Connor in 1276. The O'Connors were in turn attacked and
driven out by Donogh O'Kelly in 1308.
The O'Connors managed to retake the castle in 1341. The castle changed ownership through battles yet again on several occasions until being finally destroyed in 1691 following the battle of Aughrim.
The Dominican Friary built during the 13th century is worth a visit as is the Roscommon Jail. The jail has the dubious distinction of having had a female (know as Lady Betty) executioner. A convicted murderer on death row who had her sentence commuted after she volunteered to serve as the executioner at the jail, it is said that she used to do a sketch of every person before carrying out their sentence.
