What you can expect

  • Life Behind the Doors of Georgian Waterford

    Come along to the Bishop’s Palace for a tour with the Housekeeper or Butler while the Bishop is away and discover the secrets the house holds. Enjoy a reenactor-led experience through the luxurious surroundings of the Bishop’s Place where you can prepare to be entranced by ornate gilt furniture and architectural features.

    Discover the scandalous affairs, tantalising love stories, and more that hide beneath the veneer of Georgian perfection. Learn about misbehaving rakes, scurrilous rumours, and murder most foul on this special tour of one of Waterford’s most famous townhouses.

    The Bishop’s Palace in Cathedral Square opened as a museum in June 2011, displaying the treasures of Georgian and Victorian Waterford - it continues to delight over 250 years of history.
