The Hunt Museum
The Hunt Collection is one of Ireland’s greatest private
collections and offers visitors access to some 2,000 original
works of art and antiquity. Generously donated by the
Hunt family to the people of Ireland, this diverse
collection is now housed in Limerick’s 18th Century
Palladian Style Custom House.
Each piece was selected according to the quality of its
design, craftsmanship and artistic merit. Among the many
important pieces in the collection are the personal seal of
Charles I of England, the Mary Queen of Scots Cross and a coin
revered since the Middle Ages as being one of ‘the thirty pieces of silver’.
Also on permanent display are important works by O’Conor, Leech, Hone, Orpen and Jack B. Yeats. Families
can enjoy treasure trails, colouring sheets, and a year round programme of child friendly events.
A diverse heritage,
Something for everyone.
