Heritage Council (Ireland)
The Heritage Council (Irish: An Comhairle Oidhreachta) is an organisation created by the Irish government to "engage, educate and advocate to develop a wider understanding of the vital contribution that our heritage makes to our social, environmental and economic well-being."[1]
The Heritage Council was established under the Heritage Act of 1995.[1]
The Council's purview includes monuments, archaeological objects, heritage objects such as art and industrial works, documents and genealogical records, architectural heritage, flora, fauna, wildlife habitats, landscapes, seascapes, wrecks, geology, heritage gardens, parks and inland waterways.[2]
The Heritage Council organizes the annual Heritage Week in Ireland.[3] It also has a grants scheme.[4]
