navan fort印象
-
This is run by the council and had completely closed for a few years but is now open again on a restricted basis. The council kept the attraction in good condition and run some interesting events during the year. There is a small historical attraction inside the visitors centre and you then walk up to the site of the actual fort - which no longer is a fort but rather a large green mound. Food is good and staff are friendly. Good car parking.

Lovely staff but centre films and exhibit were poor for what one comes to expect these days in terms of presentation. Outdoor interactive piece was ok but felt the actors could have been a bit more sensitive to young children's interests.

take a tour from the navan centre, have a cup of tea or coffee, a small sand pit for the kids it has bones in it so be careful ( not real bones )you must come and see the Navan Fort, climb up the hill's and stand on the top hill and look at the beautiful view,

I have been visiting the Navan Mound for over ten years. I love celtic archaeology and I find the Navan Mound history and mythology incredibly inspiring. I also got married on top of the mound nine years ago so I would definitely reccommend a visit.

It had been years since I had been here and it was just as good as it was that first time. The sheer magnitude of what history happened at Navan Fort is worth exploring. Do yourself a favour and visit this place of history .

This is the first time in nine years that the Navan Fort Centre has been open when we have visited. Over the years we have made a few trips up to the Fort itself & have enjoyed the experience, however, as other reviewers have said; if you go to the Centre first, you will get the full benefit of visiting the Fort afterwards. Its a lovely building, mimicking the construction of hill forts and barrows & of itself worth a visit for that alone... The staff are very friendly & helpful & its clear that the exhibition does its best to be informative & largely suceeds. Having said that, its a bit "clunky" headphones are available to guide you through most of the exhibits - they "switch" as you move on & it can be a bit disjointed from time to time. Some of the screens seem to be out of kilter with the narration and one or two just dont seem to be related at all. My headphones failed a third of the way through & I had to go back for a replacement set (these things happen I know). One or two items are in old-style cases, poorly lit and with tiny typed labels which are difficult to read with less than pin-sharp child vision, sorting this sort of thing out would make a significant difference to the exhibition overall. Having said all of this, it is worth going & the Archeology "dig pits" outside the building do I am sure give a huge number of children a great deal of delight. There is the option of a video explaining the key points of the site etc, if you lack the time or inclination to make your way around the artefacts exhibit. There is a coffee shop which we didnt visit & a small gift shop too. The helpful staff member told us that they run a number events through the year focussing on interesting school children in archeology & history & at £5 per adult, we thought it was a fair price for what the centre has to offer..

I bring my tour group to Ireland every year from Australia and I tell them every time that they have the best Visitor's Centre. Don't miss it if you are visiting Northern Ireland. An absolute must.

We had enjoyable day out in the Navan Fort. The staff were friendly and the children enjoyed their craft workshop. I wish they had further information boards surrounding the fort itself. Overall it is an interesting experience.

There is not much to see of this place but when you reach here, a wonderful view of the area is waiting for you. If you are interested in photography, don't forget to take your camera with you!
