Description

With Waterford being a historic city, it houses a number of medieval walls and towers; the most impressive one being Reginald’s Tower – an imposing landmark of the city. It is located at the end of the city’s quay, in the area first settled by the Vikings in 914, the Viking Triangle. Known to be the oldest civic urban structure in Ireland, Reginald’s Tower has been used as a mint, prison and military store in the past. Today, it houses the Waterford Viking Museum; an exhibition featuring Viking Waterford. Visitors will come across the weapons of a Viking warrior, as well as an exquisite piece of jewelry called the Waterford Kite Brooch, and other artifacts relating to Waterford's Viking heritage.
