Moneygall's Tipperary Side: The Plaza and the Landing Field

Moneygall's Main Street sits in Co. Offaly, but two of its best-known Obama-visit landmarks — the motorway plaza built in the President's name and the GAA pitch where his helicopters set down in a gale on 23 May 2011 — are just across the county line in Co. Tipperary. This short companion trail links those two Tipperary-side stops for anyone continuing on from Moneygall village itself. Looking for things to do in Moneygall? Start here — no car, no ticket, no booking.
