Treasure Ireland

Copied

A project by the National Churches Trust, to support historic places of worship in Northern Ireland.

‘Treasure Ireland' is not just about grants, it offers training and mentoring to help you look after your treasured place of worship. This includes developing skills on writing funding bids, maintenance, interpretation and tourism.  

The project aims to increase the number of people visiting churches in Northern Ireland for days out or as part of a holiday. At least 100 churches will be added to ExploreChurches providing visitors with a one stop digital gateway into discovering the architecture and ecclesiastical history of Northern Ireland.

Visit our Treasured Ireland visitor guide, where we will list all our Northern Ireland content.

Follow the Treasure Ireland project on our National Churches Trust - Northern Ireland Facebook page for the latest project updates and church heritage news.
