Join us for a special Open Day at the Maria Edgeworth Centre. Discover the fascinating life and legacy of one of Ireland’s most influential writers, explore engaging exhibitions, and enjoy a warm welcome in the heart of Edgeworthstown.
The Maria Edgeworth Centre, located in Edgeworthstown, County Longford, Ireland, is a museum and cultural hub dedicated to the life and legacy of renowned Anglo-Irish writer Maria Edgeworth. Housed in a former schoolhouse closely linked to the Edgeworth family, the Centre celebrates Maria's literary contributions, her role in early education, and her progressive views on social reform. It features exhibitions, artefacts, and archival materials, offering insight into both her work and the wider Edgeworth family’s influence on literature, science, and education.

Partly wheelchair accessible.
