The Medieval Museum is the only museum of its kind in Ireland, purposely built over 13th-century Choristers Hall, and the 15th-century Mayor's Wine Vault. Here, you are sure to be wowed by some of Irelands the greatest Medieval treasures.

The Medieval Museum in the Viking Triangle, Waterford City, is a striking building which reveals the story of Waterford through the middle ages. Visitors are wowed as they venture beneath, into centuries old Medieval vaults.

Come to view the magnificent cloth of gold vestments, the only complete pre-reformation set to survive in Europe, and hear the tales of Waterford's rivalry with New Ross, as illustrated on The Great Charter Roll, once viewed by Queen Elizabeth II.

The timeless charm of the museum is yours to uncover at your own leisurely pace through a self-guided journey, inclusive of audio visuals.
