New Visitor Centre Approved For Co Galway
Full planning permission has been approved to develop a visitor centre in County Galway.
The development of Cultúrlann Chonamara, adjacent to Teach an Phiarsaigh in Ros Muc, was given the green light by Galway County Council.
The visitor centre is one of seven major projects being developed as part of a €22m capital investment, which will leave a permanent legacy from the 2016 commemorations. The other projects are a new interpretive centre at the GPO, the upgrade of the military archives at Cathal Brugha Barracks, the refurbishment of Richmond Barracks, work on the Kevin Barry rooms at the National Concert Hall, a new visitor centre at Kilmainham Gaol and the development of the Tenement Museum.
