Old Cork City Waterworks Experience

The Old Cork Waterworks Experience offers visitors a fascinating insight into the history of clean water and public health. The site features original steam engines, historic machinery, and interactive exhibits that show how water was supplied to Cork City for more than a century.

Located beside the waterworks is the Lifetime Lab, an educational centre for science, engineering, and environmental awareness. Through hands-on activities and workshops, the centre encourages people of all ages to explore topics such as sustainability, biodiversity, and climate action.

Together, the Old Cork Waterworks Experience and Lifetime Lab provide a source of history and science. They are popular attractions for discovering how technology and environmental stewardship have shaped Cork's development.
