  • The Dawn of the Celts: March alongside the Celts, the indomitable warriors of Europe, whose spirit was so fierce that even the mighty Romans erected barriers to hold their advance at bay.
  • From Pagan to Sacred: Follow Ireland’s transformative path from paganism to Christianity, led by none other than Saint Patrick, whose missionary journeys laid the foundations of faith across the island.
  • Viking Raids to Norman Conquests: Stand at the crossroads of history during the tumultuous eras of Viking raids and Norman invasions, witnessing the resilience of the Irish spirit.
  • The Tudor Plantations: Navigate the complex sociopolitical landscapes sculpted by Queen Elizabeth and her successors. Discover the prelude to centuries of strife that would reshape the island forever.
