Traditional Farms at Muckross House


Living history Irish farm set in the 1930s
Muckross Traditional Farms
The National Park
Killarney, Co. Kerry
Ireland
+353 64 3 1440
Set on several acres in the hills overlooking Muckross House is a model working farm recreating Irish life in the 1930s and 40s. Actors are busy about their chores and you may find yourself enlisted to knead bread or milk a cow. Traditional farming methods are employed throughout the complex. Depending on the time of year, you can witness traditional thrashing, ploughing, or making hay. All of the usual farm animals can be found, seemingly oblivious to the visitors. Children are often invited to offer the livestock tidbits and join in farming activities. Admission adults EUR5.75; children EUR2.35. Separate admission for Muckross House; joint tickets are available for EUR8.65 for adults, 3.90 for children (prices are subject to change, check their website for updated information).
