Armagh City and District is located in the geographical heartland of Northern Ireland, a beautiful rural, historic area served by the main motorway network in Northern Ireland, with major road links to the business capitals of Belfast and Dublin.
Armagh City and District has many places of historical interest as well as other more modern tourist attractions. A few kilometeres West of the City is Navan Fort - The Seat of the Kings Ulster from about 300B.C to 330A.D and as Emain Macha the location of the great lengths of the Ulster Cycle featuring such characters as Cu Ehulainn and King Conor Mac Nessa. Nearby also are the even earlier sites of The Kings Stables and Haughey's Fort.
In the City of Armagh itself we have the two Cathedrals of St Patrick - the Church of Ireland one occupying the site where St Patrick had a church built in 445 while on the neighbouring hill is the Roman Catholic Cathedral begun 1840. The City has many other beautiful churches. Along the East side of the impressive City park - the Mall - is located, two museums - the Armagh County Museum and the Royal Irish Fusiliers' Museum. At either end of the Mall is the Gaol (1780 and later) - now closed and the Courthouse (1809). Along the Mall East one can view some of the best classical architecture in the City. Nearby is the Observatory (1790) and the more modern Planetarium (1967).
