Lord Mayor of Cork

Welcome to the homepage of the Lord Mayor’s Section of Cork City Council's website.

Cork city has a distinguished and colourful history which the visitor can access by visiting:

Cork Past and Present

Cork Archives

Cork City Libraries

The purpose of this section is to give the visitor - whether citizen, tourist or curious browser - a sense of the rich history of the office of Lord Mayor and the many distinguished people who have worn with pride the Lord Mayor's Chain. This section of the website will give you biographies of some of my most eminent predecessors in the role and a visual and written chronology of the artefacts in the Mayoral chamber.

I hope you find the section interesting and informative.

Cllr. Dara Murphy,
Lord Mayor of Cork.
