Exterior of Newgrange, white quarty and river rock.
Interior of passage with spiral carvings on the walls. Photos are not allowed inside, Steffi used the brochure. Very clever.

Winter Solstice light entering the passage toward the interior chamber. Actually a photo from the brochure. No pictures allowed inside(except for making the brochures). It is considered a sacred site.
