Opened to the public in 1997, the museum celebrates the history of the Royal Irish Fusiliers, which have played an important part in Armagh’s history since 1793, including interpretive displays of the Armagh, Cavan and Monaghan Militias from 1793 to 1968.
The innovative displays offer a fresh approach to the interpretation of Irish military history.
The collection contains the uniforms, medals, regalia and the two Victoria Crosses won by the Regiment.
Our staff and volunteers are a varied bunch, with a wide scope of knowledge in military history/research, museum practice and public facing roles.
