Conservation in the Republic of Ireland information


Natural sites within Glendalough Valley are protected by the National Parks and Wildlife Service. Historical sites within Glendalough are protected by the Office of Public Works.

Conservation in the Republic of Ireland is overseen by a number of statutory and non-governmental agencies, including those with responsibility for conservation of the built environment and conservation of the natural environment in Ireland. Conservation has sometimes been a contentious issue, with debates impacting its progress since the 1960s.[1][2] Concrete initiatives are sometimes driven by European Union (EU) heritage protection and environmental policies, including EU environmental law, which – as a member – the Irish government is obliged to adopt and implement.[1]
