Posters from the Past at Armagh County Museum 

Step back in time with our exciting new exhibition, Posters from the Past, showcasing a fascinating collection of nineteenth-century posters recently uncovered in Armagh. These unique documents have undergone expert conservation, ensuring they are preserved for future generations and now vividly bring to life a snapshot of Armagh’s social and economic history from 180 years ago.

Created in 1845 by local printers John McWatters and The Guardian Office, these posters offer a unique window into the past. Both printers worked on English Street, just a stone’s throw from where the posters were discovered last year.

The exhibition will continue at Armagh County Museum until 4th January 2025. Admission is free—come and explore this captivating glimpse of history!
