Legendary Navan Fort

Unearth the vast history, archaeology and mythology associated with Navan Fort, one of Ireland’s most iconic ancient sites, with the Legendary Navan Fort Tour. Our guided tours provide a unique opportunity to delve into the mysteries of the great temple, constructed around 95 BC, and discover the fascinating history behind its creation. Expert guides will lead you through the complex, explaining the latest discoveries and theories about the site’s use – from its status as one of the Royal Sites of Ireland (collectively on the Tentative List for World Heritage Status) to its spiritual significance in ancient society. Archaeological digs have unearthed a wealth of artefacts, some of which are now on display in our newly updated exhibition space.

You will also meet our resident clan of Celts, ready to welcome you into their world. Listen as they share tales of heroism, ritual, and everyday life in the Iron Age – from the legendary deeds of Cú Chulainn to the secrets carried by druids, chieftains, and clans.

Feel the past come alive as you discover how this sacred landscape shaped the myths and traditions of Ireland. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a curious explorer, or visiting with family, the Legendary Navan Fort tour offers a truly unforgettable experience — one where legend and reality intertwine.
