The Kildare Town Heritage Centre, housed in a restored 18th century market house, explores the rich history of one of Ireland’s oldest towns. Step back in time with their Legends of Kildare immersive virtual reality experience.

Kildare Town Heritage Centre is both a visitor attraction and a tourist office with countywide information and a souvenir shop.

The highlight of the heritage centre is the Legends of Kildare VR Experience, a magical journey through time that begins with a warm medieval welcome. Meet legendary characters, witness ancient Fianna training and soar with a peregrine falcon. This emotionally charged story brings history to life. The Legends of Kildare VR Experience is perfect for families, small groups and history lovers. The experience is available year round in English, Irish, French, German and Chinese. Discover Kildare’s heritage like never before.
