Cong Moytura Heritage Society is to host an expert talk on one of Ireland’s foremost national treasures - the Cross of Cong - tomorrow (Saturday) at 3pm in the Crossroads Community Centre, Cong.

As part of the work undertaken to prepare the Cross of Cong to travel to the Museum of Country Life at Turlough Park, it was examined by experts in the National Museum’s conservation department. As a result of their on-going work, significant new discoveries about the Cross have been made.

The National Museum is to transfer the Cross of Cong from its Kildare Street Museum of Archaeology to its Museum of Country Life in Castlebar.
