The basics

The museum documents the struggles of the Irish republican movement through artifacts donated by members of Belfast’s nationalist communities. Displays also recount personal stories from the Troubles, a 30-year period of armed conflict in Northern Ireland that began in the 1960s. Many visitors come here as part of taxi or coach tours of West Belfast, which bring participants out to visit the Peace Walls and to view the many political murals in and around the Falls and Shankill roads.

The Conway Mill, a former linen spinning mill, has been a fixture of West Belfast since 1842, though the current building dates back to the early 20th century. Nowadays, it is in the hands of a community-owned charity, and houses the Irish Republic History Museum, artist galleries and studio spaces, an education center, and other local businesses.
