Sligo
City
Sligo Museum
A good place to see the archaeology or indeed
the history of Sligo. You will also find there
objects which belonged to the poet W.B Yeats.
Sligo Abbey
The abbey of Sligo is a Dominican monastery
which was built in the 13th century. The site
contains many sculptures, including a Gothic tomb,
a tomb of the Resurrection and a carved furnace
bridge of the 15th century, the only one to be
preserved. It is open from June to September and
guided tours are organized on request.
Walks
It is a very pleasant city as a whole and it is
good to stroll along the River Garavogue so you can
observe the fauna. The ideal place to start is from
Hyde Bridge.
Sligo Art
Gallery
Located in the Yeats Commemorative building at
the Hyde Bridge, this gallery was founded in 1977.
Its goal was to provide exhibition opportunities
for all the forms of art. The gallery accommodates
fifteen to twenty principal exhibitions each
year.
