Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage with special responsibility for Nature, Heritage and Biodiversity, Christopher O’Sullivan TD, added:
“Dún Aonghasa is emblematic of so much of our nation’s remarkable archaeological heritage. The fort, as so many of our monuments, speaks to us of dramatic times past, of hardship, of resilience, of people moulded by landscape and geography. I am delighted to see the product of this strategic partnership investment between my department’s National Monuments Service, OPW and Failte Ireland delivering such quality visit infrastructure that will serve this island and its people and the many visitors so well for many years to come.”
