3 APPENDIX 11 NATIONAL MONUMENTS IN STATE CARE & REGISTER OF HISTORIC MONUMENTS National Monuments in State Care National monuments in State care include those which are in the ownership or guardianship of the Minister for Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht (DAHG). Other owners of national monuments are empowered under Section 5 of the National Monuments Act (1930) to appoint the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government as guardian of such monuments. This means in effect that while the property of such a monument remains vested in the owner, its maintenance and upkeep are the responsibility of the State. A partnership of the National Monument Services of the Department of Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht, and the Office of Public Works, looks after the national monuments in State care. The conservation and presentation of these monuments is project managed by the OPW with responsibility for the archaeological aspects of projects resting with DAHG. The consent of the Minister for the Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht is required for any works at or in proximity to national monuments in State care. Monuments may also be defined as national monuments if they are in the ownership or guardianship of Local Authorities who have similar responsibilities under the National Monuments Acts ( ) to DAHG. These monuments are not included in the list below. To view a list of monuments in state care go to Not all monuments in State care are open or accessible to the public.
