Lough Gur Interperative Centre
Bruff, Co.Limerick

At Lough Gur Visitor Centre we tell the story of the pre-Celtic settlers of Ireland who farmed and lived in this peaceful valley. Over time the lake which dominated the everyday lives of the people became sacred. A gold and bronze spearhead, a bronze shield and countless other stone and metal objects were thrown into the water as offerings to the gods of the lake. The Visitor Centre houses an audio-visual show, exhibition of artefacts and display panels which interpret the story of man from the Stone Age.
This story of people stretches back over 5,000 years and continues to the present day in the people who still farm and dwell in this valley. You will be captivated by the beauty, charm and tranquility of this ancient place.
