Seefin Passage Tomb, Passage grave at Seefin Hill, Blessington, Ireland.
The stone cairn measures 24 meters in diameter and 3 meters in height, featuring a 7-meter passage leading to a chamber with five sections.
Built around 3300 BCE during Ireland's Neolithic period, the tomb was excavated in 1931 by R.A. Stewart Macalister without finding artifacts or remains.
The name derives from Irish 'Suí Fínn', meaning Fionn's seat, connecting the location to the legendary figure Fionn MacCumhaill of Irish mythology.
The trail to Seefin Passage Tomb begins at Kippure Bridge and involves a 7.3-kilometer loop with a total elevation gain of 340 meters.
An Early Christian equal-armed cross etched into one of the roofing stones indicates the grave remained open for many centuries.
