There’s something about Enniskillen Castle that instantly feels like home. It’s such a prominent part of the Fermanagh landscape and one of those views that, for me, will always represent where I’m from and what home means. 🏰

Coming Soon - Take a closer look...

To the Edge of Sight is a captivating exhibition by Fermanagh ceramic artist Anna McGurn, featuring a collection of figurative sculptures that explore the lives, emotions and experiences of those who exist at the edges of our vision.

Through expressive ceramic forms, Anna invites us to pause, look closer and discover stories hidden in plain sight. Quietly present within our families, communities and everyday surroundings, these figures remind us of the humanity and connections that can so easily go unseen.

Visit Enniskillen Castle from 3 October and experience this thoughtful and moving exhibition for yourself.

"The Peterhead Men" Exhibition closes this Sunday, 20 September.

There’s still time to explore this thought-provoking exhibition at Enniskillen Castle, which tells the story of a little-known chapter of Irish history following the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 1921.

Through photographs, documents and personal stories, The Peterhead Men examines the arrest and imprisonment of a group of Irish republican prisoners, several of whom had connections to Fermanagh and their time in Scotland's notorious Peterhead Prison.

The exhibition is organised in partnership with Leitrim County Library and closes on Sunday 20 September.
