Michael Cusack Centre

The Michael Cusack Centre is an exhibition centre founded in memory of the legendary Irishman Michael Cusack. The aim of the centre is to relate his remarkable story through an audio visual exhibit set in the original thatched cottage where Michael was born in 1847 during the Famine years. It is a truly immersive experience combining Irish history, culture and heritage which expresses the story of Michael Cusack’s life and times and explores his most outstanding legacy, the GAA.

After the multimedia experience visitors can relax in the picnic area or wander further afield along The Cusack Way, one of many Burren walks, the trail threads through the stunning Burren terrain all the way to the megalithic Cahercommaun Celtic Cliff Fort. The visitor centre and exhibit has something for everyone, young and old. It is the perfect day trip, so whether you’re planning a Burren walk, looking for activities in Clare or interested in the history of the GAA be sure to visit one of the most interesting Co. Clare attractions, The Michael Cusack Centre.
