Rockstown Castle is an Irish Tower house from medieval times in county Limerick, Ireland. It is a short drive from the city of Limerick.
This five storey tower atop a rock outcrop, commands fine views from its position overlooking the Limerick countryside north of Lough Gur. Nothing now remains of the parapet, and of a machicolation covering the entrance, only the corbels are left projecting over the top.
