Limerick Museum

The Museum's collection illustrates the history of Limerick and its people. Its displays include archaeological artifacts, Limerick silver, Limerick lace, examples of local printing, cases on the struggle for independence and much more. The Museum is owned and run by Limerick City Council and in 2000 it was renamed The Jim Kemmy Municipal Museum in honour of the local politician, former mayor and T.D. Larry Walsh, curator since 1977, has recently retired.
