During this fun packed day, our young visitors are invited to take part in an Easter Trail through the Visitor Centre where they will learn fun facts about Irish Easter customs and traditions. At the end of the Trail the young eggsplorers will find a colouring station and a special screening of the Athlone Castle inspired Easter story performed by Fia Rua.
Once you complete the trail you can pick up your Easter Surprise from the Easter Bunny!

Visit our 13th century castle and experience history brought alive…
Athlone Castle was first built to defend the crossing point on the River Shannon and evolved into a bold defensive structure over the centuries. Elements of the original castle can still be seen today.
We tell the story of settlement in this part of Ireland’s Ancient East, from the Neolithic period through Viking, and Medieval ages to modern life in Athlone.
