Irish National Heritage Park

9,000 years of Irish history: in this spacious open-air museum you will discover how people once lived here. The focus is on prehistoric settlements, early Christianity and the era when first the Vikings and then the Normans stormed the island. Reconstructions bring these epochs back to life. You can see, among other things, a castle and a monastery, Viking houses and ring forts.

If you want to delve even deeper into history, you can take a guided tour, take a class and even spend a night like a Viking.
