In 1988, Scala opened in Cork, and today is located near Blackrock Castle on the banks of the River Lee. It is home to Redemptorist Youth Ministry, one of the most significant providers of ministry to young people in Ireland. Each year, over 3000 students from Cork and all over Munster participate in Scala’s retreat, leadership and volunteering programmes. These are facilitated by a vibrant and committed international team, who following the same inspiration, create a space for young people to experience friendship, fairness and service.
Blackrock Castle Observatory is Ireland’s Space for Science; a landmark attraction where learning and fun combine to celebrate knowledge and innovation.
