The CIT Blackrock Castle Observatory is a castellated fortification which now houses an observatory and science centre.

With a car rental in Cork you can drive just outside the city limits to Blarney Castle and kiss the Blarney Stone, legend has it you’ll then be blessed with the gift of the gab. Also, visit The Old City Goal; now a popular heritage centre. Shop in the English markets or Cork University on the western road has a fine collection of ancient Ogham stones. Take your car and head for Baltimore, Cape Clear Island or Bantry Bay as Cork certainly makes a good base for coastal exploration.
