Kiltyclogher Heritage Centre

The Heritage Centre houses an exhibition about 1916 Proclamation signatory Sean McDermott or Seán MacDiarmada as he was later known. The exhibition contains an audiovisual facility and interpretive panels, providing visitors with information about him, as well as the history of the locality.

The Heritage Centre itself is located in the former courthouse building and has been developed with Peace III funding administered by Leitrim County Council.

The main aims of the centre are to welcome visitors to Kiltyclogher, and provide information about the history of the village with a particular focus on the Seán MacDiarmada legacy.

The family cottage where MacDiarmada was born and raised is in Corranmore a few kilometres outside the village. This is maintained in its original condition as a National Monument by the OPW and may be visited by prior arrangement. Admission is free.
