waterways visitor centre

Our visitor centre is situated in a modern building on the Grand Canal Basin in Ringsend in the southeast of Dublin City. The Centre houses an exhibition which explores Ireland's inland waterways, their historical background and their modern amenity uses. The display, which includes examples of art and literature inspired by the waterways and working models of important engineering features, highlights the significance in today's world of a network of inland waterways developed some 200 years ago. Navigation Charts and Guides are available for sale in the Waterways Ireland Visitor Centre
