In Kerry County, the vestiges of Staigue Fort, buried in the mountain, is one of the leading archeological sites on the island. With its magnificent panorama, it is impressive by its height and the thickness of its walls. As the legend goes, only a day and night were needed to build this complex of fortresses 13 ft wide, covering a circumference of 280 ft. Archeologists have established that whatever the case, the fort dates back to the first millennium BC.
