Step back in time and discover the world of the Vikings at the historic grounds of Kells Priory this Heritage Week!
Join The School of Irish Archaeology for their popular Big Dig Workshop – a hands-on, family-friendly excavation experience. Designed especially for children aged 6–12, this interactive mobile Viking House replica allows young participants to become archaeologists for the day.
Little diggers will carefully excavate the remains of a Viking house, unearth authentic replica artefacts over 1,000 years old, and learn about Viking life and culture directly from real archaeologists.
A perfect blend of education and adventure, this workshop offers memorable family fun while exploring Ireland’s rich archaeological heritage.
