Nenagh Heritage Centre

Housed in two Georgian stone buildings dating from 1840-1842, the Nenagh Heritage Centre offers a glimpse into the area’s past. Originally part of a gaol complex, the Centre showcases local history, including the condemned cells used for executions between 1842 and 1858, with an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of past prisoners. After the gaol’s closure in 1887, the buildings were repurposed by the Sisters of Mercy for education.
