About Carrickfergus

Known for

Carrickfergus Castle (the best-preserved medieval castle in Ireland), the birthplace of Andrew Jackson (seventh US President), the Belfast Lough setting, and a County Antrim town of remarkable Norman heritage

A little history

Carrickfergus Castle, built from 1177 by John de Courcy, is the best-preserved Norman castle in Ireland — it has seen more sieges than almost any other fortress in the British Isles. Andrew Jackson's parents emigrated from Carrickfergus to America, making it the ancestral home of the seventh US President.

Local tip

Carrickfergus Castle is genuinely outstanding — one of Ireland's great medieval fortresses. The Andrew Jackson Centre tells the presidential connection. The Belfast Lough waterfront walk. The town walls for the Norman heritage trail.
