On 11 February 2026 Limerick Archives will host the Virtual Treasury Roadshow — exploring the history of Limerick and its people through the lens of the Virtual Treasury of Ireland's exciting online resource!In June 1922 the Public Record Office of Ireland was destroyed in the battle of the Four Courts, the opening engagement of the Civil War. In a single afternoon seven centuries of Irish history went up in flames. The Virtual Record Treasury of Ireland is an all-island and international research programme working to digitally reconstruct, as far as possible, these lost archives.
By tracking down copies and transcripts in libraries and archives around Ireland and overseas we have recovered tens of thousands of documents relating to every corner of Ireland, making them available online free of charge.
The roadshow will take place at 6:30pm in The People’s Museum of Limerick. Attendance is free and all are welcome, but pre-booking is essential: bit.ly/4r0Ej2M. Light refreshments will be available.
