ARMAGH GUIDE Independent ideas for your day out

Objects and stories from the orchard county / ARMAGH

Armagh County Museum

Start with the county collection beside the Mall to put Armagh’s streets into a wider local context. Displays and changing exhibitions provide an indoor visit that can be as focused or exploratory as your group prefers. Look for the objects that connect with your own interests, then use the Mall for a break outside.
