The Heritage Council’s theme for National Heritage Week 2025 is ‘Exploring Our Foundations’. Galway City Museum is running a series of FREE guided tours focusing on the origins of Galway – from Gaelic fort to Anglo-Norman town – with emphasis on iconic Museum objects which have helped to shape the character of Galway city. These Heritage Week events take place at the Museum from Saturday August 16 to Friday August 22, 12pm to 12:45pm.

Galway City Museum commissioned LEGO® brick artist, Jessica Farrell, to create twelve tiny models, using LEGO® bricks and minifigures, to depict scenes from Galway’s past and present. The mini models featuring Pádraic Ó Conaire, Grace O’Malley, Turlough O’Connor and St MacDara, to name a few, have been strategically placed at different locations throughout the museum. The aim of the new Tiny Treasure Hunt is to find all characters and tick them off as you navigate through the galleries.
