デリーのオリジナルの17世紀のギルドホールは、ウォールドシティのダイアモンド地区にありました。その名前は、City&Guilds of Londonによって設立された都市のステータスを反映しています。この建物はビクトリア朝時代に火事で破壊され、旧ギルドホールの敷地を市の広場に変えることにしました。新しいギルドホールでの作業は1887年に始まり、1890年7月にオープンしました。新しい建物はもともと「ビクトリアホール」と呼ばれていました。ビクトリアにちなんで名付けられたこの都市の他のランドマークには、ビクトリアマーケット、クイーンズキー、クイーンズストリートなどがあります。 「ビクトリアホール」という名前は、デリー市議会によって資金提供された最近の修復工事中に見つかった基礎石の上に発見されました。ギルドホールの名前を維持する理由は現在不明です。市庁舎は、アイルランド社会の名誉あるアイルランド社会によって賄われており、19,000ポンドの費用がかかりました。それは時計塔だけが火を無傷で生き残った状態でイースター1908年に火事によってひどく損害を受けました。建物全体が再建され、火災後に改装され、1912年に再オープンしました。
The Troublesの間、ギルドホールは複数のテロ攻撃の焦点でした。この建物は1972年に2度の爆弾による被害を受けましたが、1970年に1,700万ポンドの費用で修復され、再開されました。1980年9月23日、Field Day Theatre Companyは最初の作品、Brian Frielの翻訳のプレミアを発表しました。
The subject matter of this tour is heavy but it's so worth it. Barry did a wonderful job of sharing the sad events that took place here and their relation to the Irish independence movement even though this area is part of the UK. It helped to understand the historical context going all the way back to the Plantation of Ulster. He also gave a sense of what life is like in Derry now. This is a beautiful city with so much history. The tour was well organized to cover a lot of stops but not feel too rushed. I highly recommend adding on the Grianan of Aileach extension; the views are simply breathtaking and it was a soothing way to end the day after absorbing so much difficult history.

Excellent experience
We had a great day with Barry in Derry. Our cruise ship cut our port time down but he found a way to include every thing we really wanted to see. The highlight is the museum of Free Derry and the important story behind the struggle for civil rights.

Derry and History
Barry was a wonderful, enthusiastic, and very informative guide. We went to Derry and learned so much about the history of Ireland, it was fascinating. Barry filled us in on hundreds of years of history. I was concerned my 22 years old daughter would lose interest but Barry kept us all fully engaged. We also went into Donegal and to Grianan of Aileach, it was all beautiful. We would book time with Barry and Paula upon a return visit.

Tour of Historical Derry
Barry made our day trip from Belfast to Derry a wonderful experience. He communicated before the trip and arrived early to pick us up. En route, he provided background information about what we were going to see and learn in Derry. The tour of Derry began with the Bloody Sunday Museum and included several important monuments and sights. We enjoyed lunch at the oldest pub in Derry and made a quick stop in Donegal to catch a beautiful view. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Experiencing Derry - Real, Raw and Riveting
This is the only way to experience Derry and to get a true perspective of the events that unfolded over centuries, the brutal oppression of Catholics and those who have only ever sought fairness, equality with others, hope for themselves and their families and a united Ireland. Barry’s passion and analysis was in abundance and he helped make this more than just a tourism experience - it was an awakening. I cannot recommend this experience more fulsomely if you want a no holds barred, authentic understanding of Derry. This is so much more than just walking in the footsteps of The Derry Girls (although we were proud to do that too!).

Insider’s look at Derry
This was a wonderful tour. Barry is very knowledgeable and friendly. We received an insider’s view of Derry and saw a lot in a short amount of time. Walking the walls was a highlight. Barry also connected us with his wife, Paula, for a tour of Belfast’s murals, which we also enjoyed very much. Thank you, Barry and Paula!
