National monument (Ireland)

A typical notice (Irish: fógra) at a National Monument. (Note that the current minister responsible is the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage)

A national monument (Irish: séadchomhartha náisiúnta) in the Republic of Ireland is a structure or site, the preservation of which has been deemed to be of national importance and therefore worthy of state protection. If the land adjoining the monument is essential to protect it, this land may also be protected.

Equivalent monuments in Northern Ireland are termed scheduled monuments and come under the protection of the Department for Communities.[citation needed]
