    Historic Obelisk Bridge near Drogheda

    August 10, 2023

    Hiking

    The obelisk itself was destroyed in 1923, after the Irish Civil War, but the bridge still retains a link to its history. The monument, also known as King William's Obelisk, was built to commemorate William of Orange's victory at the Battle of the Boyne over King James II.
