About
A small local museum in the former Scots Presbyterian Church on the High Road above the harbour, run by the Cobh and Harbour Chamber. It holds the social and maritime history of Great Island, the town, the harbour and the people who lived and worked here, in a building with a fine view back down over the water. Modest admission, and a quieter complement to the bigger waterfront attractions.
