Cork's folklore stories and traditions to come to life on Heritage Day

For those who have always wanted to step behind the curtain at the Everyman Theatre or learn about the architecture of the former Cork Savings Bank, the upcoming Cork Heritage Day offers the perfect opportunity.

This year marks the fifteenth edition of the annual event, which has grown from small beginnings in 2005 when it was organised as part of the City of Culture events. That year, 30 buildings were involved and 5,000 visitors attended.
