Oldbridge Estate/Battle of the Boyne Visitors Centre, Oldbridge, Ireland The Battle of the Boyne in 1690 was the deciding battle not just for the ruling class in Ireland but also in Britain and Europe. It explains the troubles of Northern Ireland and why it is celebrated each year on July 12th by the Loyalist community.
It was a battle that would eventually lead to displacement of Irish Celts and their culture throughout the Island of Ireland. It was also a battle for the Throne of England between the catholic King James II and the Protestant King of Holland (William of Orange).

The round tower is about 28 metres tall, and is in very good condition. It was likely built shortly after 968 and damaged in a fire in 1098.
The three high crosses date from the 10th century and form part of the scriptural group (showing biblical scenes).
The 5.5-metre Muiredach's High Cross is regarded as the finest high cross in the whole of Ireland. It features Biblical Carvings from the Old and New Testaments of the Bible.

It was really life changing to see the Neolithic art and structures. The guide was nice and it wasn't too much driving. This was my favorite tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.

The driver seemed disorganized at first running back and forth. Once underway he was fine. He was ok later in the day. Did better at the monastery and cemetary stops
