To say we have the best visitors and Tour Guides is an understatement!

A couple from Canada gifted our amazing Tour Guide Will, a stunning bottle of Maple syrup, as a thank you for helping them with their family research 🍁

We pride ourselves on always going above and beyond for customers, and to see how meaningful it is for them, means the world to us.

Overlooking the town of Enniscorthy is one of the more significant battlefields of the 1798 Rebellion.

Vinegar Hill's name comes from the Irish "Cnoc Fhiodh na gCaor" (pronounced like fee-na-gare) meaning "Hill of the Berry Tree".

This peaceful setting hides a tragic past of rebellion and sacrifice.

Learn more about the events that shaped a country, and Vinegar Hills' significance at the National 1798 Rebellion Centre, open 7 days a week.
