What about Carcassonne, which is a small fortress well preserved in south of France (so touristic too), and a fantastic board game  |

Carcassonne is quite a large town. It has two historic nuclei. The oldest part shown on the stamp is a fortress in the sense it is the original town fortified by a double wall. It also has a castle. The stamp depicts the castle and part of the walls. |

Two designs from the 1982 - 1990 third definitive series 'Architecture' issued by Éire depict castles  The values from 15p up to 22p feature Aughnanure Castle (Caisleán Achadh na nlubhar) in Oughterard (Uachtar Ard), County Galway. The tower house was built by the Ó Flaithbheartaigh family of the province of Chonnachta (Connaught), in the 16th. century. The family controlled the castle until 1572.  The stamps with a face value of 46p and £1 featured Cahir Castle (Caisleán na Cathrach). The design of the latter stamp was changed in 1984. The castle was built by Conchobhar Ó Briain, King of Thormond (Tuamhain) from 1142. The castle stands in the town of Cahir (Chathair) in County Tipperary. The present castle dates from the 13th. century and was remodelled several times. It was restored in the 1840s. |
