The Exhibition Galleries at Lismore Heritage Centre are a must for those wishing to discover more about Lismore Heritage Town, one of Ireland's most historic and romantic places.

Lismore Heritage Centre

Enjoy the refurbished exhibition galleries where you can come face to face with historic figures such as Sir Walter Raleigh, Richard Boyle and the many Dukes of Devonshire who have influenced the unique architecture of the town and its many historical buildings through the centuries. Meet Monks, Vikings and see how Lismore evolved through medieval times and the middle ages in the picturesque, historic place it is today.

The tour includes 'The Lismore Experience' an award winning audio-visual presentation where your host Brother Declan takes you on a fascinating journey through time and relates the story of Lismore since its foundation in 636AD. The centre also houses a gallery dedicated to the life and works of scientist Robert Boyle 'Father of Modern Chemistry' who was born in Lismore Castle in 1627.

A trip to this magical place would not be complete without a guided tour where the unique charm of the town's streetscape, a visit to Lismore Cathedral and St. Carthage's Church can be enjoyed.
