Nano Nagle Place is a unique complex in the heart of Cork city. The place has a museum, heritage rooms, gardens, the Good Day Deli, both a design and gift shop, and a Cork focused book shop in the museum. The gorgeous regenerated convent buildings are home to many educational charities. I advise anyone who hasn't been there to go there. Visiting this place is a magical experience as it retains a balance of cultural history and a modern green walkway.

Such a beautiful place so close to the city. Gorgeous gardens and the Good Day Deli is a must. Gift shop as you come in with lovely handmade and unique bits. The museum looks well worth a visit - we will be back!

Cannot believe it has taken me so long to visit this fantastic oasis of calm in my native city. Immaculately preserved and presented buildings, cemetery and gardens. Museum, bookshop, café and restaurant on site. Entrance is free of charge. Well worth a visit as it is only a short walk from St. Finbarre's cathedral. Parking extremely limited....so leave the car at home.

The Nano Nagle place is the first place that I discovered in Cork, it was such an amazing place to see and the lovely thing that I recommend is to listen carefully to the story of Nano Nagle in the museum. It seems like to be lost in the right direction, I really love it and I appreciated too much the lovely ambassador dear Angles for making my day more beautiful.You are the right person in the right place. I wish you all the best.

We visited on Friday and had a wonderful guided tour with Agnes. I would highly recommend doing the tour as you learn so much more and get the human side of the stories. Agnes was a great guide, she had a really soothing cork lilt. It almost felt like asmr sitting in the sun hearing her tell the story of Nano Nagle. The gift shop and book shop are fabulous, filled with jewellery, homewares from Irish designers. Overall definitely worth a visit and they have lifts on site so great accessibility

A beautiful hub of knowledge complete with a museum and gift store with quaint and cute little handcrafted and artisan things. Has a beautiful garden tea shop/cafe. Even if you don’t go to the museum, this is still worth a visit because of the natural gardens and the crocheted flower garden. A work of art!

Great cafe here, (Good Day Deli). Beautiful location and excellent food. Good service too. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place to visit in Cork City! Full of history and gorgeous nature - make sure to spend time in the gardens.

A most unexpected gift that was good for your soul! Right off the top if you visit Cork a must see is Nano Nagle Place. It was truly enjoyable, inspirational and I am sure your hearts will be touched as much as ours were. Arriving off a cruise ship we travelled to Cork for the day. The very helpful tourist office circled a number of points of interest on our map and off we went. We arrived at Nano Nagle Place, having no idea what it was, expecting a museum of some sort. Well!! it was that and much much more. We were greeted by an Ambassador named Agnes who instantly helped us understand the extraordinary significance of this museum and gardens dedicated to the Venerable Nano Nagle, an inspirational woman who in the 1700s of Cork dedicated her life to supporting those in need. Her story and life was neither one we had not been aware of, nor her connection to Canada. The grounds are magnificent with a lovely cafe on the grounds as well as a gift shop and of course the museum. The staff we encountered were friendly, welcoming and professional. When we left Agnes saw us off like life long friends rather than the day-trippers we were. She touched our hearts deeply with her warmth, her passion for her work and the stories she shared. Now back on the ship I am now becoming much more acquainted with the compelling life story of Nano. What a gift our visit was.

The friendliest museum I have ever been to. I was greeted by ambassador Agnes, who lives and breathes the heritage of Nano Nagle and the museum. Be inspired by the story of Nano Nagle, that provided education for Catholic children in a time where it was forbidden. And enjoy the lovely peaceful garden in the middle of the city. Just what I needed on a Sunday morning.

Visit if you can and do a guided tour. Interesting place greatly enhanced by knowledgeable staff! You can also just pop in and enjoy the beautiful gardens (no fee) but been better if you explore Nano Nagle's fascinating story!

Nano Nagle was a wonderful treasure we happened upon. Agnes and Tatiana were lovely to chat with and the museum was absolutely beautiful! Definitely recommend a visit during your stay in Cork!

Pleasant surprise stumbling across this peaceful spot in the middle of Cork city. We were greeted by a very friendly and informative worker. Didn’t take the paid tour, but enjoyed just walking around the grounds. Will have to return to try the little restaurant someday. Few people just relaxing and talking, and a couple others that looked like they were also there for the first time. I’m not sure I’d say it’s a must do if visiting Cork, but if you are here for an extended period of time, definitely check it out.

We had never heard of this strong independent woman. I am not religious bit could not help but admire the work she did which has been carried on in her name. The staff were all passionate about this place and keen to share their knowledge and answer any questions. The museum itself is designed well and is accessible to all ages in how the information is delivered. Nano Nagle's grave and surrounding area is in a beautiful setting. I am so pleased we visited this place and special thanks to Agnes whose photos on display from when she was a young girl helped to bring it to life.

Our first visit to Cork. This was the highlight of our stay. The museum is lovely. The restaurant was bonus (with excellent food & wine). Agnes, the "Ambassador" for the museum, would be my new best friend if I ever moved to your beautiful city! Her passion for Nano, the incredible "inside tour" and token gift she gave me, made a memory I will never forget. I knew nothing about the amazing Nano Nagle before visiting, but I know hold her dear to my heart and even have a print of her in my office. Thank you for putting together such a beautiful place (architecturally, it is a great site to visit in of itself). The other staff were also very helpful and friendly. 5 star visit!

Gorgeous and interesting place so much to see beautiful book shop and Agnes what a beautiful human we had a great chat we had to cut our tour short but will definitely be back as we live in Cork ( I know guilty 1st time here )The easiest way to explain the grounds is it brings you bk to just being present, relaxed and stress free it's a magical place definitely worth a visit 😊

Went to school here a while ago now! great place to visit while in Cork city I've visited a couple of time's with my family and friends staff so friendly and helpful. Lovely to see Cork city history being preserved and remembering some of the wonderful women connected with Nano Nagle place (South pres school)

A beautiful and serene location which snuck up on us. My son had a wonderful time playing in the gardens, the food place is great for brunch, and the two stores are both little gems. A nice piece of history/biography for those who are interested and a spiritual and enjoyable place to relax for an afternoon!

Lovely place to visit during your stay in Cork. You learn a lot about Nano and her work. The picture is of a bird in the garden I spotted. Super friendly staff to top the experience off!

A hidden gem in the city. Gardens are beautiful, interesting award-winning museum. Very nice gift and book shops. Nice cafe that you can eat in or get takeaway coffees/cakes.

I began my journey with Nano Nagle Place last year when I started volunteering with the Cork Migrant Center. Every Wednesday during the summer I was there and every Wednesday after I was so excited to go back! To this day I am still so fascinated by the beauty of Nano Nagle Place and all it's history which makes the place so much more beautiful, each time I visit I find it more gorgeous than the last time and I always learn something new.

Beautiful location for brunch and the food is really good. The staff in Good Day Deli are efficient and friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. The only thing I disagree with is the cancellation fee of €20 if you cancel with less than 24 hours notice. Definitely book well in advance because there is very limited availability because they’re so popular.

Nothing less than 💯👌✨️♥️☘️ for everything. Warm welcoming, pleasant and knowledgeable staff, beautiful building, perfectly clean excellent gift shop with reasonable prices for great gifts. Close to city centre and many nearby attractions. Would always recommend it to anyone visiting or living in Cork City. It's just MUST VISIT . I'm sure you will love it ❣️🏛🎁📖📷✒️

A relaxing place to visit in nice weather and to learn about an amazing woman.

Nano Nagle devoted herself to religion and helped and educated the poor, Catholic girls and boys more than 200 years ago when the Penal Law was employed. Her work and the Presentation Sisters deserved more attention and respect.

I was introduced to here via the Lantern project. Very inclusive of all ages. Great courses in things like pottery, crochet, boat building, singing and much more. I had the privilege of attending the Christmas 🎄 choir recital which was a fab day. Lantern project clientele, staff and local school kids made up the choir, musicians and conductors. I didn't realise that Karina had such a singing voice!! Both Gary and Karina have always been the best as well as all the volunteers. The Lantern Project at Nano Nagle place helped me immensely a few years ago. Thank you all 🙏💚🇮🇪
