Newgrange is a Neolithic passage tomb dating back to 3,200BC, notable for its intricate roof box that allows sunlight to illuminate its chamber during the winter solstice.
Each year, on the winter solstice, a lighting phenomenon occurs at Newgrange, where sunlight enters the tomb for 17 minutes, drawing visitors and rural pagans alike to celebrate the sun's return.
