The mission of the Office of Public Works is to manage the State property portfolio, Ireland’s flood risk and our national heritage – all in a sustainable manner.  The organisation maintains and presents Ireland’s most iconic heritage properties, including Ireland’s two World Heritage Sites, 800 National Monuments, 32 National Historic Properties and over 5,000 acres of gardens and parklands.

Its responsibilities, however, do not extend to any heritage ships or boats and there are no such heritage assets in the care of the OPW.
