Because of Louth's position on the border with Northern Ireland on the main road between the cities of Belfast and Dublin, its two main towns, Dundalk and Drogheda are often jammed with traffic. However, both have points of interest including the embalmed head of Saint Oliver Plunkett in Saint Peters Catholic Church in Drogheda and the Harp Brewery in Dundalk.
