Welcome to the Irish Heritage
Trail, a guide to landmarks of Irish-American artists and heroes from the
1700s to the present here in
Massachusetts. The Trail is divided into
three sections: 20 sites in downtown
Boston and Back Bay, covering over
three miles: and over 20 other
landmarks in Boston neighborhoods,
cities and towns throughout the state.
As a cultural tourism group, we want
visitors, residents and educators to
learn about the state's largest ethnic
community as a way of appreciating
American culture, heritage and history.
We created this Trail as
a way of advocating for the care and
restoration of these precious historical
landmarks, many of which need to be
refurbished. We place a value on these
landmarks with hopes that they'll be
preserved and maintained for
future generations.
Enjoy your journey along the Irish Heritage Trail!
In 2024, stay tuned for new sites added along the Boston Downtown/Back Bay Trail and the Boston Neighborhood Trail, plus a Driving Trail for Irish landmarks all across Massachusetts.
