Tourist Attractions & Monuments Ireland

Among the city's historic buildings, the elegant Market House, dating from 1792, now houses the tourist office.

Located in a former Franciscan monastery, this gallery, opened in 2006, exhibits all forms of Irish art from the 17th century to the present day.

Very to spend a good stay in the second city of the county of Wexford.

The office is on a historic axis of the city, including the religious buildings, Church of Ireland and Saints Patrick & Felim Cathedral. The building - even houses the library of the county.

This modern Irish distillery also houses a visitor center, which is actually a museum dedicated to the making of Tullamore Dew whiskey. Housed in former 19th-century customs warehouses, the building has a charming, authentic atmosphere. The museum features an interesting exhibition on the origins of Irish whiskey, the manufacturing process and the marketing of Tullamore Dew in Ireland and around the world. After the tour, you can sample the whiskey and learn more about its flavors with the guide's expert advice. This experience will give you a better understanding of the Irish attachment to their distilling expertise.

This office is a film on the medieval history of Trim, The Power & Glory, in English and French. On site there is a restoration point: The Ramparts Coffee Shop. Everything is very close to the castle.

A tiny museum on the mining history of the village and the daily newspaper of the minors, these the last two centuries.

Dedicated to the patron saint of Kinsale, it is a remarkable church built in the th century, making it one of the oldest in Ireland. It was slightly reworked in the th century and surrounded by an old cemetery. The portal surmounted by a sculpture, now protected, is of a completely elegant nature.

It's hard to imagine a simpler, more spiritual structure than the dry-stone oratory at Gallarus (apparently built between the ^7th and ^8th centuries, although some historians dispute this, such as Christian Lassure, who refers to a ^17th-century family burial chapel). It should be remembered that oratories were chapels, built either in stone or wood, which often formed the very heart of the monastic site. The founder's tomb was located right next to the oratory. Its shape is reminiscent of an overturned stone ship's hull. A hut with a circular opening lets in a stream of light.

After Castlebaldwin, headed for Boyle. An exceptional site lost in the Bricklieve Mountains: fourteen cairns (from 2000 to 3000 BC) are dispersed on the top of the mountain, one of which (labelled "K") is construction similar to that of Newgrange (Meath County): a passage over the corridor allowing the light to be filtered to the burial chamber.

Bus Eireann travels to Boyle from Sligo. Those who have visited Mellifont Abbey (Louth County) will regain the austerity and severity of the Cistercian monks who built Boyle Abbey in the th century. The church is the main ruin. It keeps its long nave and, in the choir, the elevation of a square tower by impressive arcades. The three openings of the rectory are three blade blades sharp the sky and trees. The cloister, unfortunately, only remains the promenade which allows at least to admire the sequencing of the arches of the church solidly seated.

Grange Stone Circle is quite simply the largest stone circle in Ireland (with a total of 113 stones and a diameter of no less than 45 metres). This prehistoric gathering place is around 4,000 years old. This cromlech, near Lough Gur lake, dates back to the Neolithic, according to specialists. Located south of Limerick, not far from Bruff, on the road to Kilmallock, Grange Stone is a great idea for an excursion, with a site that nestles in an idyllic setting not often visited by tourists. Admission is free and the surroundings are perfect for a picnic. Think before you go!

Place of pilgrimage on the edge of a lake. His recount is quite amazing. In the facade of a ruined Norman fortress, a niche was carried out, protected by a glass, it houses a cross before which, on a bench, one can meditate… A little before, pretty still a tower looked in the form of a reverse cross.

Exhibition on the life of Saint Colmcille (or Saint Columba) who was born in the region in the th century. A video, guided tours and a tea room are in place. The site is on the edge of Lake Swilly where several hiking trails are located.

One of the best-preserved circles of levées in the country: 64 different stone stones from the Neolithic, some of which have engravings, with panoramic views of the surrounding valleys and mountains.

The O'Brien Tower was built in 1835 by Cornelius O'Brien, a descendant of Brian Boru, the Great King of Ireland, and O'Brien of Bunratty Castle, Thormond Kings, to serve as an observatory to the hundreds of travellers who, at the time, came to look at the cliffs.
