Donaghmore Famine Workhouse Museum is 15 minutes away housed in a restored workhouse originally built in the early 1850s. The Museum aims to tell the story of the families who lived and died within the famine workhouse walls before, during and after the Great Famine era of 1845-1849 where about 1,200 people (or 10% of the population of the area) were forced to seek refuge here. The museum uses guided and self guided tours combined with various exhibitions.
