Waterford Treasures

 

Waterford Treasures comprises 5 individual museums.  These award winning museums all located just minutes from each other tell the story of this beautiful ancient city right from its inception when the vikings founded and built Waterford in 914.

  • The Medieval Museum is  Ireland’s only purpose-built medieval museum and the only building on the island to incorporate two medieval chambers, the 13th-century Choristers’ Hall and the 15th-century Mayor’s Wine Vault.
  • The Irish Silver Museum is an intimate and personal collection of silver treasures from Ireland. From the Vikings to the Victorians, this collection has been created by Ireland’s virtuoso craftsmen over the course of a millennium.
  • The Bishop’s Palace in Cathedral Square opened as a museum in June 2011, displaying the treasures of Georgian and Victorian Waterford. This architectural jewel, now a museum, continues to delight over 250 years later, the ground and first floors furnished as a very elegant 18th-century townhouse, with some of the finest displays in Ireland of 18th-century glass, silver, furniture and paintings.
  • The Irish Museum of Time is located on Greyfriars Street in the heart of Waterford’s Viking Triangle. This refurbished gothic-style church is a fitting home for what is beyond doubt the finest collection of Irish timepieces in the world.
  • The Irish Wake museum, situated in Ireland’s oldest urban domestic building, in what was once a 15th-century Almshouse, will take you on an exploration of life and death, detailing traditions and superstitions, from early Christian times right up to the 20th century on this fully guided tour.
