Louth County Museum - Dundalk
The Louth County Museum is not your old-fashioned "How Green was my Valley" trip into nostalgia. Louth and Dundalk were made by industry. To press this point home you are greeted by a once famous produce, a car.
Mellifont Abbey (County Louth)
If you are interested in the history of Christianity in Ireland, you simply have to visit Mellifont - this was the first "European style" monastery on the island and marked an important change.
Monasterboice (County Louth)
Unlike nearby Mellifont Abbey the monastery at Monasterboice was Irish-Celtic. Today just the round tower, two high crosses and some ruins remain.
