The ancient city of Amargh, with its two cathedrals, the mediaeval St Patrick’s and chapterhouse (Church of Ireland) and the 19th century St Patrick’s Cathedral (Catholic) with its tall spires and brilliantly coloured interior and with Palace Stables and St Patrick’s Trian (to explore the city’s history), and the attractive 19th century streetscapes and old medieval centre, is still the ecclesiastical centre of Ireland. Just outside the town is the massive (and well preserved) Navan Fort, dating back to 2,500 BC and inextricably interwoven with ancient Celtic myth and saga.
