Dinosaurs have arrived on the Burren! 🦖

The UCC ‘Domain of the Dinosaurs’ exhibition, showcasing original fossils and the only known dinosaurs from Ireland, is touring the country.

Selected specimens from the collection are travelling to museums and educational centres to bring the deep past to local communities.

The main exhibition was originally hosted at the Glucksman Gallery at University College Cork.

The Burren Visitor Centre is delighted to be hosting the travelling collection of dinosaur fossils for the whole of June. And as with all our exhibitions, it’s completely free to enjoy!

Drop in and take a look! 🦕

We are looking forward to seeing the documentary.

Well the ☀️ wasn’t going to last forever!

No bother - we are a great place to shelter when the rain starts:

Walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain,
tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you,
those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire.

Carved stone heads on Irish churches and cathedrals are a rich, fascinating aspect of medieval architecture.

Often tucked away above doorways, windows, or carved into interior corbels, these historical artifacts offer a rare glimpse into the spiritual and cultural beliefs of early Irish society.

Corbel Heads such as this example from Killilagh Church, now housed in The Burren Exhibition here at the Centre, are usually found on Romanesque and Gothic churches, and usually depict bishops and monks, but sometimes occasionally are carved depictions of local patrons!

Anyone have a family resemblance to this fella? 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒
