Experience Eastern Ireland
Eastern Ireland offers an experience rooted in layers of time, where ancient landscapes and living history sit side by side. Along Ireland’s Ancient East, prehistoric tombs, medieval castles, monastic ruins and grand Georgian estates reveal over 5,000 years of human story, while the Irish Sea coastline, fertile river valleys and softly rolling countryside provide a gentler alternative to Ireland’s ‘Wild West‘.
From the streets of Dublin to the Boyne Valley, Wicklow Mountains and Ireland’s historic heartlands, the history of these townlands and parklands is woven into everyday life through architecture, folklore and tradition.
Ireland’s Ancient East spans much of the eastern half of the island, encompassing historic counties such as Meath, Wicklow, Kildare, Kilkenny, Wexford, Waterford and, of course, Dublin (the country’s capital). Together, they capture Ireland’s ancient story from early civilisation to Viking, Norman and Georgian influence.
