This well preserved five storeys high tower house stands on the eastern shore of Lough Corrib to the south of the priory. Annaghdown Castle was most likely built by the O'Flaherty Clan in the late 14th century. The doorway in the southeast wall is protected by a good murder-hole. There is a fireplace at the first floor. A long passage in the north wall leads from the stairway between second and third floors. The castle has undergone renovation and is not now open to the public.
