• CO134-118 House - 18th/19th century
  Description

  This is the birthplace of Michael Collins (1890 -1922), Irish revolutionary, politician, Chairman of the Provisional Government and Commander in Chief of the National Army. The building to the rear of the site is the original dwelling house where he was born on the 16th of October 1890. Around 1900 the family moved to a new house and the old dwelling was utilised as a farm out-building. Close to the entrance is the footprint of a farmhouse which was burned by the Essex Regiment during the War of Independence in April 1921. Michael Collins was killed by anti-treaty forces on 22nd August 1922 in an ambush at Béal na Bláth, Co. Cork, during the Civil War. The family homestead and farm was sold in 1923. It was purchased by the State and opened to the public in 1990. It was vested in the Commissioners of Public Works in 1991 as a national monument (no. 634).
