It was lovely to watch (online) the sunrise at Newgrange after visiting the site this year (June 2025).

nice to think that over 1000 people went to take a chance on seeing the winter solstice sun rise in person (it is Ireland!), and over 11k watched the live stream from the Office of Public Works cameras

'Look towards the light and keep hope in your heart.'

Always moved by the voice of Dr. Clare Tuffy at Newgrange, Brú na Bóinne - a true guardian role. Happy Solstice, everyone.

Newgrange Winter Solstice - Sunrise Alignment

At Newgrange on mornings around the winter solstice a beam of light penetrates the roof-box and travels up the 19m (62ft) passage and into the chamber

Solstice greetings to all. Watching #Newgrangesolstice for a glimmer of the sun - rather murky dense mist here in the North Wessex badlands.
