Discover the magic of the ‘Boireann’ or ‘stony place’ in the Burren Centre in County Clare. This visitor centre is in the heart of Kilfenora. Explore their fantastic exhibition on Clare’s cultural heritage and audiovisual theatre, narrated by famous environmentalist Éamon de Buitléar.

The audiovisual experience traces the formation of the Burren 320 million years ago and explains why Alpine, Arctic and Mediterranean plants grow side by side in this limestone world.

Hear about how wolves once roamed the forests and how people left their mark on the landscape in the form of the dolmens and burial chambers, which still stand today as stone sentinels to the Burren’s heritage.

Learn about The Kilfenora Céilí Band in the Parlour which features musical instruments and historical artefacts; an unforgettable look at the band’s journey over the past hundred years.

Later you can take a break with a fresh, warm brew at their cosy Tea Rooms.
