Description


Painted on the gable ends of a dozen houses in the Bogside are some of the most iconic images of the troubles in Northern Ireland, from a teenager with a petrol bomb, a priest taking a dying man away from Bloody Sunday, to the image of a 14 year old girl, an innocent, the 100th victim of the troubles, killed in a gun fight between the IRA and the British Army. You can wander around the area and see the murals for free, but if you want to get a better idea about them you can go on a guided tour with the men who painted them.
