La storia di Leinster

Dublin has the national museums, the National Gallery and Trinity College with the Book of Kells. North of the city, Newgrange and Knowth at Brú na Bóinne are older than the pyramids. Glendalough, in the Wicklow mountains, is a monastic site by two lakes, and Kilkenny is a medieval town with a castle and a cathedral.

  • 1993Brú na Bóinne on the UNESCO list
  • 6th c.St Kevin founds the monastery of Glendalough

Sunlight in the tomb

Once a year the sun reaches the heart of Newgrange.

Above the entrance of Newgrange is a small 'roof-box'. For a few mornings around the winter solstice, the rising sun shines through it, down the 19-metre passage, and lights up the chamber for about 17 minutes. So many people want to see it that places are given by a lottery.
