Waterford Treasures Museum Irish Museum of Time Admission Ticket
A Must See!
What a joy this museum is! I visited with a Freedom Of Waterford pass which gets you into a few Waterford Museums and is excellent value. Out of the museums visited, the Museum of Time has won hands down! The staff are very knowledgeable and the clock collection is fascinating, from sun dials up to modern timepiece, all with fascinating history. The world's largest collection of cuckoo clocks was a highlight!

Waterford Treasures Museums Irish Silver Museum Admission Ticket
GREAT EXPERIENCE - Would highly recommend.
A lovely gentleman, who along with his son, create the beautiful pieces in this museum. He was so knowledgeable and gave us time to explain how pieces are made. There is a very interesting short movie which covers the creation of a ring. The items in the whole museum are wonderful. You'll cover it all in less than an hour. Highly recommend this museum.
