Cork LGBT Archive

Cork LGBT Archive gathers, preserves and shares the rich history of Cork’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender communities, bringing this previously hidden history to light and making Cork’s queer history impossible to ignore!

Prior to the establishment of the Cork LGBT Archive accounts of Irish LGBT history and heritage focused primarily on activities in the capital, ignoring and excluding the rich history of activism throughout the country. The work of the Cork LGBT Archive also gives us a better understanding of how social change happens in Ireland and of the interconnections between campaigns for LGBT rights, feminism, and social change activism. It helps to develop a more inclusive and nuanced understanding of Irish history and heritage.

The Cork LGBT Archive makes a wide range of historical materials available and accessible for the general public, students, researchers and activists, through our digital archive, physical collection and through publications, exhibitions, film, walking tours and talks
