The Anglo-Normans had finally captured the area around Limerick in 1195, under John when he was Lord of Ireland.
Local legend claims that Limerick in 1197 was given its first charter and its first Mayor, Adam Sarvant.
A castle, built on the orders of King John and bearing his name, is completed around 1200.
