The Knowth watch celebrates the tumulus and the seventeen smaller satellite tombs found at Knowth (Cnogba). The site is regarded as one of the most remarkable prehistoric monuments in the World and is best known for the magnitude of the engraved Neolithic rock art, with images of the Sun, the Moon, constellations and stars, found on some 261 decorated kerbstones and passage stones.
