• NATIONAL MUSEUMS HOME

Opened to the public since 1937, the Museum occupies a fine classical building originally constructed in 1834 as a school. It overlooks the Mall, a small area of parkland, which at one time was a race course and is now home of Armagh Cricket Club.

Discover a rich and varied legacy revealed in objects ranging from prehistoric artefacts to household items from a bygone age. There are military uniforms, wedding dresses, ceramics, natural history specimens and railway memorabilia. An impressive art collection includes works by many well known Irish artists.

The Museum staff aim to ensure that all visitors feel welcome and are keen to help with enquiries. There is an extensive reference library, rich in local archive material, along with photographic and map collections.
