Derrynane National Historic Park

|
Southwest of Caherdaniel extends the Derrynane National Historic Park. Nature trails with explanatory signboards conduct the visitor through the dunes which are bordered by a long sandy beach. The tiny Abbey Island offshore can be reached at low tide. Within the grounds stands a fine mansion where Daniel O'Connell (1775-1847) lived. The building now houses a museum. The park is always open.
Derrynane House is the ancestral home of Daniel O'Connell who was a lawyer, statesman and politician. The House displays the relics of O'Connell's career and life.
