Skibbereen Heritage Centre is located in the award winning, beautifully restored Old Gasworks Building, in Skibbereen West Cork. The Centre consists of two themes. The Great Famine Commemoration Exhibition commemorates the tragic period in the 1840s also know as ‘The Great Hunger’. Skibbereen was one of the worst affected areas, and the events of the era are depicted using local characters and events. The Lough Hyne Visitor Centre explains the unique nature of this salt water marine lake, Ireland’s first Marine Nature Reserve.
