Visit the West Cork Model Village

To see the villages in perspective!

There’s nothing stranger than strolling along a model village! This is what the little museum in Clonakilty has to offer, taking you back to the heart of Irish villages in days gone by!

The villages on display are stunningly realistic: their designers have left no stone unturned, paying particular attention to the color of the roofs, the facades of the houses and the local businesses… The rendering is very realistic, and should almost tempt children to make it their playground!

A number of characters have also been added to provide a historical context. The museum’s explanatory panels are well documented. This will give you an insight into Ireland’s cultural context, its way of life on a daily basis, and the usual organization of a small country village in Ireland.

In short, a fun attraction for those who appreciate the art of model making and realistic scale models!
