Dalkey - Isle of Anglesey: Sharing a Culture

Crossing the Irish Sea has long been a way of life for people living in Ireland and Wales. Archaeological evidence suggests a connection between these two peoples before the third millennium B.C.

Share in our culture! We want to share Dalkey & Anglesey’s parallel cultural legacies with as many people as possible.

Our Historical Tours take you to out-of-the-way places, such as remote headlands and hills where you can explore historic buildings, ancient monuments and beautiful gardens.

Much inspiration can be found in our archaeological, historic and wildlife environments. Through residencies, we support Artists to mine these creative veins.

We focus on similarities, rather than differences between Irish and Welsh cultural heritage. By exchanging myths and legends in situ, we uncover the traces of common Language.

The Dalkey-Anglesey Project is an Interreg Community 111A Initiative, spearheaded by the Dalkey Irish Heritage Town Company and the Isle of Anglesey County Council's Museums and Culture Service. For more information see Project History.
