Malahide Information

The picturesque seaside town of Malahide is well worth a visit. It is located about 16km north of Dublin city.

Malahide Castle is a huge fairytale castle set in 250 acres of grounds. The castle's core, dates from the 14th century but there were many later additions to it. The Fry Model Railway is situated in the old corn store in the grounds of the castle. Started in the 1920s by Cyril Fry, a local railway engineer, the 240 sq metre exhibit contains models of Irish trains, miniatures of stations, streets and local landmarks such as the River Liffey and Howth Head.

Malahide is well served by the DART train and boasts many fine restaurants, lively bars and quirky shops.
