Found this museum by accident , really interesting history around the siegh. Has alot of artifacts and two audio films you can sit and watch. Is wheelchair friendly.
I really enjoyed learning nore if the history of Derry here. The video was very informative ans interesting. The only thing was the man at reception didn't have answers for some of our questions about the history. Although he was friendly and tired to give us the answers. Really great museum.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Fantastic place to learn about the history of Londonderry and the events during the siege of 1688-89. A great day out.
This is well worth including in your itinary of places to see in the Maiden City. It describes the history of the siege and the dreadful conditiobs endured by the people during the siege. The constant bombardment by the Jacobite forces, the diseases and lack of food etc show what it was really like to be an inhabitant of a besieged city. There is a lift if you cannot manage stairs and a nice gift shop as well.
The guides were very knowledgeable and considerate...answering all if our questions..I was very impressed with their knowledge and they were gracious and patient with us..excellentVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes

Informative, and always useful to be better informed of a little of the history of the city, and the siege of Derry.
Fantastic place. Staff so knowledgeable. Great tour.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Id say the museum is fairly biased, I remembered reading a part where it said that the people of derry had lived in harmony before the troubles or something along those lines. This obviously though isnt true as there was continued sectarian troubles in the city during that time. If you ignore stuff like that though the museum itself has a good collection of objects such as weapons.
Completely informative visit to a museum dedicated to the 105 day long Siege of Derry. Open to different viewpoints so learned a lot. Would recommend just because it's so unique! We visited Thurs 29.07.21.
