A day long event reflecting on Cork history.

Posted on: August 28th, 2010 by Leigh No Comments

Tomorrow Cork country residents will be able to take a step back and rediscover their past. Many landmarks and buildings around the city are planning to throw open their doors to show off their heritage. Venues such as the Everyman Palace, Cork Courthouse in Washington Street, UCC, South Presentation Convent and the North Cathedral are offering guided tours – all free to the public.

People can take a tour of Cork City Hall which will include a look at the architecture and history of the building and a visit to the Lord Mayor’s chamber. Other activities include the Grand Parade City Library offering residents the opportunity to trace their family history using the 1901 and 1911 Census.
