County Carlow Military Museum

The County Carlow Military Museum is dedicated to the collection, preservation and display of military memorabilia heritage. This fine museum is housed in a late 19th century church.

All artefacts in the County Carlow Military Museum are donated by families of former service men and women and show their careers involving local, national, and international events in which they participated.

A range of over 4,500 items cover all periods from Carlow Castle, 1798 Rebellion, 1916 Rising and World War 1 and 2. Extensive reference material can be used by school groups, tourists, authors and researchers.

Come and see us and support us in preserving our community’s past for visitors and Carlovians of the future.
