Museum exhibiting various objects linked to the history of Galway, with a terrace overlooking Galway Bay
A visit to the Galway Museum is not to be denied, at least to access the terrace which is the Spanish Arch (city gates) from where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Galway Bay. The museum allows you to discover all sorts of objects related to the history of the city, such as farm tools, pieces of old machinery, military equipment but also stones from the medieval period acquired by the artist Claire Sheridan... A visit that history lovers will not neglect!

Ce petit musée est consacré à l’histoire de Galway. En une heure, il permet d’en apprendre davantage sur la navigation, la pêche, les grands personnages qui marquèrent l’histoire de la ville… Certaines expositions sont, en partie, interactives et rendent la visite plus ludique. Il ne faut pas s’en priver, d’autant que l’entrée est gratuite et que, depuis le dernier étage, on peut apercevoir l’Arche espagnole ainsi que la rivière Corrib dont la force des courants est impressionnante !

Free city museum of Galway whose collections have a connection with the history of the city. But it is provided and light my taste. (precisely on the history of the city) We recommend to get there because it is free and will teach you some well information on the city, but do not expect a large museum. If you do not speak English or Gaelic, no translation is offered. However, there are already a phonecard in exhibition! );
