Blarney Stone - Information
Blarney Stone is a must-visit for any tourist in Blarney due to its rich history and folklore. According to legend, kissing the stone grants the kisser the gift of eloquence. The stone is believed to have been brought to Ireland from Scotland in the 15th century.
Visitors to the Blarney Stone must climb to the top of Blarney Castle and lean backwards over a sheer drop to kiss the stone. It is said that over 400,000 people have kissed the stone, including famous figures such as Winston Churchill and Elvis Presley.
