The Computer and Communications Museum of Ireland tells the fascinating story of key moments in the history of computing and communications. Founded in 2010, the Computer and Communications Museum of Ireland tells the fascinating story of key moments in the history of computing and communications. We explore technology by preserving the past, demonstrating the present and educating for the future. The museum originated from a Galway City Development Board sub-group called eGalway and was founded by the late Dr. Chris Coughlan and the museums curator Brendan Smith.
The concept of establishing the museum was as a direct result of Galway’s great heritage in computing and communications which continues today with IT being a major cluster. There has been an IT presence in Galway for over 40 years since the Digital Equipment Corporation established its facility while Galway’s communications legacy goes as far back as 1907 with the establishment of the Transatlantic Marconi Station at Clifden.
