Cobh Museum

Cobh Museum is located in the former Scots Presbyterian Church on the High Road [the main road into Cobh] above the Heritage Centre.

The Church was built in 1854 to accommodate the growing Presbyterian congregation in the town at that time, and served the congregation until the mid 1960s.

The Church was then donated to the Cork County Council on the condition that it would be used for a cultural purpose.

Cobh Museum opened in 1973 and has grown over the years. The displays reflect the cultural, social and maritime history of Cobh and the Great Island.

Most of the original features of the Church have been preserved, including the pulpit, bible, harmonium, lectern and pews.

The museum is open to the public from March to October.

Opening hours: Monday-Saturday 11am - 1pm & 2pm - 5.30pm

Sunday 2.30pm - 5pm
