Telling the incredible story of Ireland’s lighthouses and their ongoing importance in modern Irish life, the RTÉ series ‘Great Lighthouses of Ireland’ simply wowed viewers when it was broadcast in autumn 2018.

Detailing the previously untold stories of lighthouses in Ireland, their keepers and the vital role they have played in maritime safety over some 200 years, the series features many of the 12 Great Lighthouses of Ireland, explores just how Ireland became a world leader in lighthouse engineering, the roles our lighthouses played in historic events and how they’ve evolved with electronic and GPS navigation.

A fascinating showcase of these lighthouses in all their stunning glory, the four-part documentary is now available to stream on demand through Vimeo for €10.
