About

The Irish Palatine Heritage Centre houses an exhibition that seeks to re-present in detail the Irish Palatine experience ranging from their German places of origin, to their colonisation and settlement in Ireland, and their subsequent scattering all over the English speaking world. Due emphasis is placed on the Palatines' innovative contribution to Irish farming life and on their formative role in the development of world Methodism. The Centre features an extensive display of artefacts, photographs, graphics etc. associated with the Palatine story. It is set in landscaped surroundings and includes an archive, a tea-room, gift selection and bus/car park.
