€1.2m Collins museum to open in Clonakilty next month

A long-awaited Michael Collins Museum in his native West Cork is expected to open to the public next month.

And, in a separate initiative, work is to begin on designing a special Collins ‘trail’ which will clearly signpost locations throughout the region which have links with the life of the renowned freedom fighter.

Final preparations are now being carried out at the €1.2m Michael Collins Museum in Clonakilty.
