The Sligo Secret Scripture tour is a local history and literary tour based in Sligo town. The tour takes you back to Sligo from the turn of the twentieth century to 1930s from the viewpoint of one semi-fictional family. The award-winning author and Laureate in Fiction Sebastian Barry, inspired by his family history set his novels in the town.
This tour will take you through the streets of Sligo where the characters walked, giving you a sense of the social history and heritage of the locations during this time.
