The government has decided that, as of midnight on Wednesday 21 October, all of Ireland will be placed on Level 5 of the Plan for Living with COVID.
All indoor OPW Heritage sites are now closed. Outdoor playgrounds, play areas and parks all remain open with protective measures in place, as do the outdoor spaces at some National Monuments. Please check the individual site pages on heritageireland.ie for individual opening arrangements.
Thank you for your co-operation.
The following OPW sites have been reserved between 10am and 1pm for people who are cocooning. This includes the over-70s and the medically vulnerable.
