Cork City has a great geological legacy that is an integral part of the city's culture and history. Red and white are colours that regularly come to mind when describing Cork; they make up the city’s flag but also represent the two main rock types that are present in the city.

During this event, we’ll present Hardcore Cork: geology in the City, our new geoheritage project for families in Cork and give details on the activities we developed for National Heritage Week. As Heritage Week goes online this year, we prepared digital content including walking trails, 3D models of local rocks and fossils and reconstructions of past environments.
