Wicklows Historic Gaol from 1702, is a place, which is sure to provide you an unforgettable experience. Audio-visual effects make that the history of the prison with its main characters alive again. You'll discover who were the prisoners, the details of their daily life and the rules prevailing in the prison over the times. You can also take a look at two important topics of Irish history: the Rebellion of 1798 and the mass deportation of prisoners to British colonies all over the world (especially during the time of Great Famine it was a chance for a better future, but only for those who survived the extremely heavy the travel conditions).
