Founded in 2013, the Brehon Academy aims to be an influential force in the revival and appreciation of the laws, customs, myths, and culture of early Ireland.
The Brehon Academy aims to be of valuable service to the world by acting as a bridge between the wisdom of old Ireland and the world today; a digital hedge-school for Irish heritage and culture with a special focus on the Brehon laws of early Ireland.
We achieve this by creating audio-visual resources, online courses, reading materials, videos, building a digital resource library, and fostering the growth of the Brehon Academy Community
