Cavan

This 1885 cut-stone railway station is now home to a visitor centre. The centre houses a fascinating archive of memorabilia including original tickets, timetables and special railway artifacts, and is an ideal spot for railway enthusiasts and children.

Born in 640 AD in Mullagh, County Cavan, Saint Killian became a missionary to Wurzburg in Germany and was later martyred there in 689AD. This exhibition details his life and times, as well as the work of Irish missionaries in Germany in the sixth and seventh centuries. 

One of the most important exhibits on show at the Cavan County Museum, the Killycluggin Stone is believed to have religious significance associated with fertility. Discovered on a farm in 1921, it’s thought to be Bronze Age in origin.
