Basic Information

Newgrange is located in County Meath, Ireland, about 50 kilometers (31 miles) north of Dublin — that’s roughly the distance a cheetah could run in 20 minutes at top speed!

Newgrange was built around 3200 BC, making it older than the Egyptian pyramids and Stonehenge — imagine a building that’s been standing for more than 5,000 years!
