Lismore Heritage Centre
Location: Lismore, Co. Waterford
Description: Spare a thought for the wood-lined Blackwater River which, unlike ourselves, cannot stop to admire the beauty of Lismore and the ducal castle that salutes it from above. Lismore’s history is inextricably linked with the Church, from St. Carthage’s Monastery in the sixth century to the Cathedral named in his honour a thousand years later, a story beguilingly told at the Heritage Centre in the town.
At the centre visitors can stroll through the recently refurbished exhibition gallery and come face to face with the historic figures who shaped Lismore Town through the ages with characters such as Sir Walter Raleigh, Richard Boyle and the Dukes of Devonshire.
Find out about the ancient treasures of Lismore, meet Monks, Vikings and Normans, and see how Lismore evolved through the ages. Learn about Robert Boyle (Boyle’s Law) who was born at Lismore. National Tidy Towns Winner.
