Meeting point at Claddagh Church (5min in advance of the Tour)


At No. 7 Claddagh Quay, the new Galway Rape Crisis Centre building embodies both purpose and place. Designed to provide a safe, respectful, and supportive environment, the architecture reflects the Centre’s ethos of dignity and care. The building balances sensitivity to its historic setting with the creation of modern, functional spaces that allow the Centre to continue and expand its vital work.

For more than four decades, the Galway Rape Crisis Centre has been a lifeline for survivors of sexual violence across Galway City and County, Roscommon, and North Clare. This new facility not only strengthens that commitment but also stands as a physical symbol of resilience, community, and hope.
