Very interesting muesuem. The figures they use are very lifelike and really makes you understand what the people went through around the time of the famine.

This is a little gem. We'll stocked, lovely ambience, clean toilets, great coffee and most important, friendly staff. In my opinion it looses 1 star for signage. Unless you actually go inside the gate you won't see the cafe, and some people park directly outside the jail thereby blocking the view of the sign there. Also as it closes too early, I miss my second cup of coffee on my way home. But we'll worth a visit. 👍👍👍
