mill museum

On the left hand side of the bridge as you walk down Shop Street in Tuam is an old corn mill which has now become Tuam's Mill Museum. This undershot mill traces its origin to the 17th century.

Today the mill wheel still turns and the machinery in the mill itself is operational. Inside the miller's house one can see miniature examples of four types of mill in operation. The tour of the mill includes a slide show on the history of Tuam and its surrounding areas. The tourist office is also located here.
