Kildare, Ireland
Ireland is chock full of historic castles. Some you can even stay at, like Kilkea Castle in County Kildare. Kilkea Castle dates back to the 12th century.
The opening in this stone wall looks like it might have once contained a drawbridge which could be raised to keep enemies at bay.
I love how the huge Christmas wreath above this blue Irish door makes the portcullis look less menacing.
