Cobh Museum is housed in former Scots Presbyterian Church on the main road into Cobh from Cork. Its many exhibits relate to Cobh’s long maritime history. Artefacts include grim reminders of the Lusitania disaster, model boats and ships, and mementos of a Cobh lady of the early 19th century. Most unusual are copies of three watercolours of the harbour and a pencil sketch of Black Rock Castle by Queen Victoria on her visit to Cork Harbour in 1849 and other marine artists such as Atkinson and Stopford as well as the history of the Church itself.
