Discover bygone Irish rural life and heritage at the Sligo Folk Park, in the beautiful village of Riverstown, County Sligo. Situated 20km from Sligo Town, Riverstown is just off the M4, Dublin to Sligo motorway.

Sligo Folk Park, Riverstown, County Sligo is a community based attraction that provides a true experience of rural life and Irish heritage in the late 19th century.

The Folk Park is set in the grounds of the authentically restored Millview House, which was originally built in the 1850s by George Reid, a farmer, shoemaker and church sexton.

Highlights include the recreated turn of the century village street, the Hands exhibition focusing on old pastimes around the home, the school house, and the World's Most Travelled Cottage.

Whatever the weather, you can stroll around the park, and visit the 12 wonderful exhibits, which house one of Ireland's finest collections of rural history, farm equipment and agricultural artefacts.
