Valentia Island Heritage Centre in County Kerry intends to open for this year’s season during Easter.
A ‘Heritage Week’ is being planned for this year and will feature stories from the lifetimes of island residents.
The Centre has received donations of a number of artefacts, including about the local fishing industry and a collection of poetry and folklore of the local area of Beginnis.
Valentia Island is located on the Skellig Coast in the Southern Peninsula of the Wild Atlantic Way adjacent to the Ring of Kerry.
