Guildhall, Derry, Town hall in Derry, Northern Ireland.

The Guildhall features neo-gothic architecture with Tudor elements, built from red sandstone and crowned by a clock tower modeled after London's Elizabeth Tower.

The Irish Society financed the construction of this Grade A listed building in 1890, which later underwent rebuilding in 1912 following a severe fire.

The main hall displays intricate stained glass windows donated by London companies, depicting various trades from fishmongers to musicians through detailed craftsmanship.

The building serves as the meeting place for Derry City and Strabane District Council members and includes accessible facilities with elevators and ramps.

The Guildhall houses an organ installed in 1914, containing 3,132 pipes designed by Sir Walter Parratt, making it an exceptional musical instrument.

Explore Northern Ireland amidst Celtic legends, castles, and volcanic landscapes

Northern Ireland tells its story through stones, cliffs, and memories. From the Giant's Causeway to Derry's walls, each place seems filled with stories where Celtic myths, medieval heritage, and traces of the modern world intertwine. Belfast, once an industrial hub turned cultural center, showcases its museums and markets to the breeze coming from the Irish Sea. The landscapes of County Antrim enchant with basalt columns, suspension bridges, and cliffs battered by waves. Further inland, stone circles, monasteries, and distilleries extend the journey into a territory where each site links nature and memory. Exploring Northern Ireland is like walking through centuries that are open to the sky, between the legends of Ulster's ancient kings and the contemporary echoes of a resilient land.
