A thousand-year history :
It should be noted that Ireland has been inhabited since about 6,000 BC. The Stone Age sites, sown all over the island, are the most important in the world. Ireland's history is fascinating, rich and always present. Wherever you are, you will find traces of this rich past: prehistoric sites, Celtic ruins, medieval abbeys, castles, etc. There are so many that one trip is not enough to discover the country's history. If history is a passion, the remains surprise by their quantity, but especially by their conservation. Still intact, the monuments revive Irish millennial history.
