Historic and Religious Sites
The Boyne Valley contains Ireland’s densest concentration of archaeological and medieval heritage. This collection centers on the Brú na Bóinne UNESCO World Heritage site, featuring the Neolithic passage tombs of Newgrange, Knowth, and Dowth. It spans millennia of history, from the ceremonial earthworks at the Hill of Tara to the 12th-century Anglo-Norman Trim Castle. Religious history is represented by the Cistercian Bective Abbey, the 14th-century Yellow Steeple, and the early Christian monastic site at Castlekeeran.
