Best History Museum in Tipperary

"Initially established as a personal collection, the 2000-plus items are from the private collection of the late John and Gertrude Hunt. Originally located at the University of Limerick the museum was later moved to its own premises in the Customs House of Limerick. One of the most lenient museums in the whole of Ireland you are allowed to open drawer and touch some of the artefacts."

"Hunt Museum located in the heart of Limerick City is located in the elegant eighteenth century Custom House provides an ideal setting for an enjoyable visit, where the riverside restaurant looks out over the Curragour Falls and the museums gift shop showcases a wide range of local and international crafts and gifts."

"Free to enter, the Limerick City Museum is a diverting cabinet of curiosities, with interesting things from many different fields. You can inspect archaeological finds from the Stone Age and Iron Age, or the scabbard owned by the revolutionary Lord Edward FitzGerald that he used while resisting arrest when he was killed in 1798. There are 60,000 items in the museum’s collection, including blunderbuss guns from the 17th and 18th centuries, 200-year-old Limerick silver, clothes like a gentleman’s suit from 1706 and a piece of the Adare meteorite of 1813, the largest ever to hit the British Isles (as they were at the time)."

"The Limerick Museum is another city museum in Limerick and was founded in 1907 on Pery Square. It has moved to several locations since then and is currently located in the old Franciscans Friary on Henry Street. The museum has a collection of 60,000 objects gathered through donations, purchase and long-term loan."

"The mythical side of Irish life (which is still fairly widely loved, if perhaps seen locally as a little clichéd) is one of the great Irish experiences for many people. Terra Nova is a magical garden that contains an ancient fairy fort dating back thousands of years, though the addition of modern fairy statues and magical touches will probably entice most visitors. Atmospheric, to say the least."

"Limerick, winner of the Best Garden in Ireland, it is a magical day out for families and gardeners alike and is home to Ireland’s Largest Fairy Gift Shop."

"Cratloe Wood is a State owned forest on the slopes of Woodcock Hill beside the small village of Cratloe in County Clare."

"After you’ve spent a good amount of time in the Art Gallery, it is probably time for you to take a rest in the People’s Park. This beautiful park was opened in the late 19th century and is where you will find most of the greenery in the city. Just to get away from the hustle and bustle of your trip, the park is great for spending a little time relaxing and just taking a break."

"This beautiful wooded park in the heart of the Georgian city is an excellent place to take a breather while on a Limerick tour. A large selection of deciduous and evergreen trees characterize the landscape. From spring to late summer, you’ll find a beautiful floral display here."

"Take shelter under the wooden Pagoda or get a feel of the Asian Urban Set Up of Z-WE-TON in Raheen. At the Centre of a popular area and two minutes from the Crescent Shopping Centre, this is the perfect venue to accommodate a savoury break or host a successful party."
