An interactive historical atlas · 200 sites · 8 eras
Ireland Through Time is a hand-curated map of 200 sites spanning eight eras and all 32 counties — from the Neolithic passage tombs of the Boyne Valley to the peace walls of modern Belfast. Every site has verified coordinates, a bilingual name, and a link to a primary source.
Ireland already has excellent institutional viewers — the National Monuments Service's Historic Environment Viewer catalogues over 145,000 records, HeritageMaps.ie aggregates 600+ datasets, and the Royal Irish Academy's Irish Historic Towns Atlas offers deep single-city studies. This atlas sits between those and the guidebook: a walkable, filterable, mobile-first, bilingual entry point to the whole island's story.
Filter by era to trace a chapter — Viking longphorts, Norman castles, Famine emigration ports. Toggle the 19th-century Ordnance Survey overlay to see the modern landscape fade into the historical one. Build an itinerary. Read it on your phone at the site itself.
