The historic Rock of Dunamase still towers over the Laois countryside from its high rocky hill, even as a ruin.
Now the 12th-century Irish fortress has been restored - at least virtually - by a talented Irish artist.
Colm Fahy has created a two-minute life like digital video that takes the viewer through fortified gates and all around the castle.
Watch it below.
Colm told the Leinster Express why he decided to spend three weeks on what was a labour of love. This pandemic thing is not all bad news! The pandemic slowed things down a bit and for the first the time in years I had the opportunity to see Ireland in a deeper way. Laois seemed like a good starting point, thanks to fond memories of a great Laois woman who was my boss some years back!
