Fodor's Expert Review Carrickfergus Museum and Civic Centre

As one of the most archaeologically excavated towns in Northern Ireland, Carrickfergus is home to many fascinating finds on display in this museum, exploring life in the town from medieval times to the present. Tourist visitor information is available here as well as at the nearby Carrickfergus Castle. A guided walk which starts from outside the castle, "Lead the Way Tour," showcases the role of the town during World War II. It leaves at 10:30 am on Saturday and costs £8.
