Lonely Planet review for Workhouse Museum
The Workhouse Museum is housed in Derry’s original 1840–1946 workhouse. Daily life at the workhouse for the 800 inmates was designed to encourage them to leave as soon as possible, alive or dead. One of the exhibits is the grisly horse-drawn hearse used to carry away the corpses.
