Newgrange

The main cairn at Brú na Bóinne, Newgrange, County Meath, is famous for how the sun enters its long passage on the Winter Solstice and lights the innermost chamber. A temple and place of burial for our ancestors over 5000 years ago, it is one of our most famous and sacred sites. Here we see the light of dawn lighting the passage, as the ancestors of the millennia watch with reverence.
