Derry City Walls
The best way to experience these magnificent 400yr old walls is by taking a stroll along the rampart walkway. Today we did just that and captured a few 360° panoramic photos while there.
St Columb’s Hall
In its heyday, Derry’s St Columb’s Hall was a vibrant, much-loved theatre attracting many thousands through its doors in pursuit of escape and entertainment.
First Derry Presbyterian Church
Located within the city’s Walls, First Derry Presbyterian Church has a significant historical context. It is believed to be on the site of an earlier Presbyterian church founded in 1690, as a reward for the bravery of the Presbyterian’s during the Siege of Derry in 1689.
