Ireland

Surprisingly for a country this ancient, Ireland only has two UNESCO sites: one prehistoric and one medieval. Click on the map to reach the individual articles about each site, or use the list below the map. Also see the United Kingdom because there are another couple of UNESCO sites in Northern Ireland.

Sceilg Mhichíl (a.k.a. Skellig Michael)
