About
Nestled near the town of Ferrycarrig in County Wexford, the Irish National Heritage Park invites visitors to step back through 9,000 years of Irish history. The 55‑hectare site showcases a tapestry of authentic, life‑scale reconstructions that range from prehistoric crannogs and Celtic forts to Viking longhouses and the first Norman fortifications in Ireland. Complementary exhibits, interactive displays and an audio‑visual show bring Irish culture and storytelling to life, making it a magical, hands‑on museum experience for families, history enthusiasts, and curious travellers alike.
