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

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

There is a small genealogical reference section in the museum where visitors can do their own research.

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

From November to April the museum is closed to public viewing, while the office remains open. Genealogy referral service available to appointment only.
