Explore the history of the various prehistoric farmers who settled in Ireland, from the Mesolithic period to the time of the Norman Invasion (1169). Reconstructed dwellings such as a mesolithic camp, a neolithic farmstead, a portal dolmen, a cyst grave, stone circle, medieval ringfort, monastic site, crannóg (ancient lake dwelling) and a Viking harbour are spread across 35 acres of parkland, estuary trails and wetland forest. The park also runs demonstrations on traditional rural life skills from blacksmithing to gold panning. This is a truly immersive experience exploring Ireland's roots and forgotten traditions.

One of the most impressive aristocratic residencies in Poland is located in Rogalin. The 18th century, late-Baroque palace hosts the museum of the Raczyński family, as well as a carriage house, a painting gallery and a church from 1820, stylised as a Roman temple. The palace is surrounded by a park with the largest concentration of oak trees in Middle-Eastern Europe, whose history dates back nearly 700 years - the most famous of which are Lech, Czech and Rus.
