What is the Ulster Folk Museum?
Our museum is a gateway to the past. Using original buildings from all across Northern Ireland, we have recreated a village set in the period 1900-1910, to show how people worked, lived and learned in the past. There are two key areas- the bustling town, and the rural countryside.
