Downpatrick and County Down Railway

Downpatrick and County Down Railway is located in the beautifully scenic Downpatrick Marshes and offers the best views available of Downpatrick Cathedral, the Church of the Holy Trinity, where Ireland's patron saint St. Patrick is supposedly buried.

Recent additions The Carriage Viewing Gallery and Workshop Viewing Area enables visitors to see up close the volunteers' loving restoration work. You and the kids can get into the carriages and experience a vintage era of rail travel, plus thoughtful displays depict the early history of Irish railways, major events and the reduction of the once extensive Irish railway network.
