Visit the Ulster American Folk Park

Walk in the footsteps of bold migrants who set sail for America in the 18th and 19th centuries. Learn more about the life they left behind and the hardships they endured on the journey. Wander the well-trodden pathways of rural Ulster, complete with a bustling street and welcoming farmhouses. Board the Brig Union ship and experience the cramped quarters where hundreds of people lived during their twelve-week Atlantic crossing. Emerge from the crossing and learn how our resourceful ancestors created new lives in a new land.

Building Closures Notice

Our exhibits at the Ulster American Folk Park are a collection of traditionally built and replica buildings. Occasionally, we must close them to the public to allow for essential maintenance and repairs. This is so we can ensure our exhibits are appropriately cared for and conserved for future generations. 

Please be aware that there will also be other outdoor areas within the museum undergoing essential maintenance until further notice.
