These series of lectures will serve to bookend our Decade of Centenaries programme of events and exhibitions that have dealt with the Great War and its impact on Cork, its people, society and politics. Since 2013, the museum has created a replica First World War Trench (2014-2018), opened an exhibition on the end of the war and its impact on Cork during 1918 entitled Virus, Victory and Votes (2018) and opened the museum’s first ever exhibition on the Royal Munster Fusiliers entitled The Forgotten Regiment (runs until May 2023). We are committed to expanding our Royal Munster Fusiliers Archive at the museum, which was started last year. Cork Public Museum will continue to acquire and research objects and documents related to the Great War and the experiences of the Cork people involved.
Therefore, we are delighted to bring you a great series of talks between January and May 2023. They will be held on Saturdays at Cork Public Museum at 1pm.
All are welcome but booking is essential. Please contact us at museum@corkcity.ie or 021-4270679 to book your place.
