| The castle is situated
in a large, mature, ornamental garden,
planted sometime in the 1830's. The castle we see today was
constructed for the Grogan-Morgan family
sometime in the early 1800's.
Today, Johnstown
Castle is used as a conference center and
offices for an agriculture institute. At
this time, there are no tours of the
castle; one does not get past the
reception desk with out an appointment.
Despite being unable to tour the castle,
we were delightfully surprised by the
quality of the castles' gardens.
