Cork LGBT+ Interactive Walking History Tour

24 July 21 - 1 August 21

Free

The Cork Pride Interactive LGBTI+ Walking History Tour in collaboration with Orla Egan from The Cork LGBT Archive. Cork has a long and rich LGBT+ history that everyone should know. The reimagined walking tour is interactive and permanent providing everyone an opportunity to take the tour year-round in their own time and pace. Check out the map below, get your walking shoes on, and enjoy the experience!

Orla Egan, the digital archivist for the Cork LGBT Archive, has developed an Interactive LGBTI+ Walking History Tour in collaboration with Cork Pride. Plaques are being placed on many buildings throughout Cork with QR codes linking to exhibits on the Cork LGBT Archive site, with film, leaflets, and posters.

Cork has a long and rich LGBT+ history which is documented in the Cork LGBT Archive collections. The Cork LGBT Archive was the winner of the DRI Community Archive Scheme 2019 and has been preserved for long-term access in the DRI repository. Visit the DRI repository to access the Cork LGBT Archive collection, which can be downloaded and used under a CC-BY-NC-ND licence.
