Galway Walking Tour

We'll meet outside the St Columba's Credit Union office on the edge of Eyre Square and begin the walking tour of Galway.

Starting at Eyre Square, we'll see The Browne Doorway, originally the entrance to a notable family's home, relocated to the square in 1905. Another significant monument is the Quincentennial Fountain, designed by architect Eamon O'Doherty, established in 1984 to celebrate Galway's 500th anniversary as a borough.

Next is Lynch's Castle, a 16th-century Gothic castle currently functioning as a bank, which was previous a hotel. We'll then visit the Galway Market, open year-round on Saturdays and Sundays, known for its food and craft stalls selling traditional Irish products. Following this, we’ll walk down Kirwan's Lane, located in the Latin Quarter, showcasing 16th and 17th-century architecture.

As the tour concludes, we'll visit The Spanish Arch, built in 1584, originally named "Ceann an Bhalla". We’ll then cross Salmon Weir Bridge to Galway Cathedral, completing the tour after 1.5 hours. Slán!
