Exploring History At Connemara National Park 

The archaeological and historical sites at Connemara National Park tell the tales of human lives and the history of the park for thousands of years. The park’s two megalithic tombs (West and East Tomb) in the park were already popular.

However, thanks to the surveys of Helen Riekstins, an archaeologist and national park guide, we have 13 other sites that add to the importance of the park.  

Among these 13 sites, six further have been visited by NMS or the National Monuments Service and Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage. Here are the visited sites. 

  • A standing stone 
  • A cairn 
  • Enclosures 
  • A pre-bog wall 
  • Nearby hut 
  • A house 

Further, the other seven sites are to be a part of the Record of Monuments and Places (RMP) review for inclusion.  

The pre-bog wall is likely to be associated with neolithic farming. On the other hand, the hut sites and standing stones are believed to be from the Bronze Age.  

  • Connemara National Park has sites that are 10000 years old. These sites existed as coastal middens and belonged to the Mesolithic or Stone Age. 
  • Many archaeological and historical sites are found near Diamond Hill, Letterfrack, and Mweelin.  
  • The megalithic tombs in the park are around 4000 years old.  
  • Connemara National Park is a twin historic site with Terra Nova National Park in Newfoundland. These twinning sites speak for the cultural bond between Ireland and Canada. 
  • Guglielmo Marconi, who received the patent for two-way radio in 1912, is associated with the place. Between Diamond Hill and Mweelin, he suspended the wires, and the current site of Bunaboghee Bog and Park Office had the second line. Here, he invented the first Full Duplex Radio.  

So, the presence of various archaeological sites and the association with famous personalities make this park a delightful site for history lovers.

Moreover, the Letterfrack Industrial School (1890) is a site important in modern history. Further, the school’s graveyard here tells the grave tales of injustices to the boys resting there.
