Unlock the Walled City

  1. Museums
    Dive deep into Derry’s unique history and discover all there is to know about this thriving historic city. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited places in Ireland, there is history at every turn.
  2. Landmarks
    Bucket list at the ready – prepare to tick off some must-see landmarks on your trip to the city. It goes without saying that a visit to Derry isn’t complete without taking a walk on our 17th century City Walls. A walk around the walls reveals a splendid city crammed full of history, heritage and a vibrant cultural scene.
  3. Churches/Cathedrals
    We boast two beautiful cathedrals in the city - both worthy of a visit - as well as a plethora of beautiful churches. St Columb’s Cathedral was the first Cathedral built after the Reformation. It is the city’s most historic building containing displays of artefacts from the Siege. It is also home to the locks of the Walled City.
  4. Theatres
    Enjoy a theatre experience in the Walled City. Whether it’s a small scale am-dram or a full blown musical theatre experience, you’ll find it all here.
  5. Donegal Attractions
    Derry is the perfect base for exploring the rugged, raw beauty of Donegal and its heavenly beaches. Just a short drive away from Derry City Centre, venture onto the Wild Atlantic Way and discover Donegal’s finest tourist attractions.
  6. Other
    As one of the most historic cities in Europe, Derry has much more to offer when it comes to arts, culture and heritage. Street performers, live theatre and dance academies are just some of the many exciting experiences available in the Walled City.
