Kerry County Museum traces the history of County Kerry, from when the first settlers arrived at Ferriter’s Cove to Medieval Tralee and beyond. Highlights include the Geraldine Experience, an evocative 30-minute trip through Tralee in 1450, Kerry the Kingdom, which traces the history of Kerry from its beginnings, a large collection of archeological artefacts discovered in Kerry and the actual duelling pistols used by Daniel O’Connell, the Liberator. The Museum’s home is the restored Thomas Ashe Memorial Hall, completed in 1928, in memory of Thomas Ashe, a member of the Irish Volunteers who died in 1917.
