Tara Hall, the home of Royal Tara china, is a beautiful Queen Anne - Georgian style mansion and was formerly the seat of the Joyces' - one of the ancient tribes that founded Galway City.
Free Guided Factory Tours are available hourly where visitors can witness, at first hand, the creation of timeless heirlooms at the fingertips of master craftspeople. Each piece of Royal Tara is handled over thirty times through ten different stages of production in order to become a much loved piece of Royal Tara fine bone china.
