First place to visit. No cameras allowed inside. But what a wealth of history in one little house. So much to read about. Past Knight's from the Fitzgerald family. Dedication and commitment to have the transatlantic cable. And the use of a thimble...want to know more. Then please visit.

What a cute little place. Refurbished & great use of a building which was originally a school house for the islanders. PACKED with a font of knowledge about the 1st transatlantic telecommunication system & island life. Well Worth the hour to see it.

A superb little museum full of local interest. Traditionally laid out, but packed with information about Valentia's history. Possibly a good starting point for those tracing their ancestry. The museum is just off the main road a little hard find.

This is a very regional centre. It's interesting to see the history of the first telegraphic cable to cross the Atlantic specially for those linked to telecommunications an IT. Apart it, it's not a big deal. When I went there, I looked from outside of the door and I was giving up of the place when an old men, smiled at me with a warm welcome and told me to get in and help myself with cakes, tea and coffee. He bought me at that moment, not because of the food, which seemed delicious, but with so kind and...

Traveled to see this as it stated it was open on website. No signs outside to say otherwise. Met by a person onside who seemed to be instructed to tell us they were closed for the season. Again not mentioned on website. Im sure if they really wanted to let us have 20 minutes they could have but did not...

Its a little off the beaten track, but only maybe 100m from the village. The classroom is a favourite for everyone. The information on tge transatlantic cable is also...
