The wall, surrounding area and the Free Derry museum are a must visit for those interested in history, social history, social struggles and how a community and culture rises from the ashes.nBook a walking tour and visit the places and stories of a marginalized community, who were subdued, beaten, discriminated against and murdered by forces of the Crown.nYou will then see how, through determination of spirit and forceful resistance, their stories give hope to other communities and races who are being opressed at this time.nnThere are plaques, monuments, remembrance gardens, artistic murals proper hand painted murals, not printed plastic ones like in Unionist areas of Belfast and stories from local people.nnTake the time to understand the suffering this community was endured.

I was overcome with emotion at this place. People walk around as if it's just another landmark or tourist attraction, but having any familial connection to the area makes this so much more powerful.
A very interesting ride around Londonderry all the street art is excellent and everywhere is nice and clean
Great murals!nBut just in one corner, one senses hurt and unrest and longing.
Free Derry Corner is definitely a significant landmark with deep historical meaning, but as a visitor, I found the presentation quite one-sided. The focus leans heavily on a specific political perspective, which can make it feel more like a political statement than a balanced memorial.nnIt’s not worth seeing. I would have appreciated a more neutral overview of the conflict and its impact on all sides.
