Irish Military War Museum
Review
Tucked away in Starinagh, Co. Meath, the Irish Military War Museum is, in my view, the finest military museum on the island of Ireland. Owned and curated by military historian William Sullivan, this fantastic museum delivers an engaging, immersive journey through conflicts old and new. Across roughly 7,000 square feet, you’ll find an extraordinary collection of uniforms, weaponry, memorabilia and military vehicles, many with service history in major conflicts or appearances in film and television. What really sets this museum apart is its hands-on ethos: instead of exhibits being roped off, visitors are encouraged to get up close, creating an unforgettable, tactile experience. William himself is charismatic, knowledgeable and wonderfully welcoming, instantly putting visitors at ease. Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, with family or as part of a group, you’ll be very well looked after. This is my second endorsement and I’m certain it won’t be my last.
