Knights & Conquests Heritage Centre
Review
“No flower of her kindred, no rosebud is nigh, to reflect back her blushes, to give sigh for sigh.” T. Moore.
Bring history back to life, with an unforgettable visit to the Knight’s & Conquests Heritage and Visitor Centre, situated in the historical town of Granard, County Longford in Ireland. Visitors of all ages and abilities, are given the unique opportunity to fully immerse themselves in the Norman history of Ireland, and pick up the gauntlet and take part in an interactive odyssey that includes wielding a Norman weapon. The part-guided tour will capture and captivate visitors with stories of the past, which includes the great love between Kitty Kiernan and Michael Collins. Climb Ireland’s tallest Norman Motte, and absorb the beautiful views across three provinces, in this picture perfect setting. This is hidden Ireland; a magical place where you act out your own Game of Thrones, and experience the life of Kings and Queens with all your friends and family.
