β€˜Christmas in the Poorhouse’ will often stir scenes of Scrooge and other Dicken’s classics. However original research from our archives tells a very different tale. One of traditions, festive foods, holidays and cheer.
Our experienced tour guides will tell the story of those from Belfast Charitable Society who were responsible for bringing some festive merriment into the house in the 1800s, and how Christmas traditions developed throughout the centuries.
With the use of augmented reality, we will take you back in time to Clifton House in the 18th and 19th centuries, before bringing you back to the present where Belfast Charitable Society continues to honour some of these Christmas traditions, over a hundred years later.
