A village renowned for its many historical attractions!

But it’s also close to the famous Boyne Valley, where one of the most emblematic battles in Irish history took place on July 12, 1690! It pitted the army of William III of Orange (Protestant) against his predecessor, the Catholic King James II of England, and had terrible repercussions on Irish history (even today!).
