DALKEY CASTLE & HERITAGE CENTRE



21st Century Technology Meets 15th Century Living History.



Dalkey Castle & Heritage Centre is right in the heart of Dalkey, 10 miles south of Dublin city. We are five minutes from the DART train station and across the street from the Church car park. 



New for 2013: Enjoy the contrast between 15th century living history with the costumed actors and the interactives of 21st century technology.



Let your imagination flow and you will travel back in time and be enthralled by the extraordinary work of the Archer, the Cook and the travelling Barber-Surgeon.



You can climb to the battlements for panoramic views of sea and mountains.



Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the early Christian Church and Graveyard, dedicated to Saint Begnet.



Browse the interactive time line from early Christian through Viking, Medieval, Victorian and modern times in Dalkey (available in 12 languages).
