New intepretative centre unveiled in Armagh
Northern Ireland tourism minister Arlene Foster has officially unveiled a new interpretative and historical centre in Armagh as part of the city's St Patrick's Festival celebrations.
No 5 is housed in the city's former Registry on Vicars' Hill and has included an overhaul of the 18th century property to display coins, prints and antiquities. The project has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Northern Ireland Tourist Board as part of the St Patrick/Christian Heritage Signature Project.
Foster said: "The completion of No 5, together with the other attractions in Armagh, will encourage visitors to come to the area, stay a while, and hopefully return in the future. "Along with improved accessibility to the Library's collections, visitors to this new tourist attraction can find out more about the priceless collections and curiosities of Archbishops Robinson and Beresford."
