- The Quiet Man Museum - The Quiet Man Museum is a faithful replica of ‘White O’Morn’, the ancestral home of John Wayne’s character in the film The Quiet Man, as the original cottage is now in ruins and the interior was a Hollywood set. This marks the first occasion where both the exterior and interior of ‘White O’Morn’ have been recreated in one location. The Quiet Man Museum is a must-visit for any fans of The Quiet Man. Great care has been taken to ensure that all the furnishings, artifacts, and costumes are authentic reproductions. The four-poster bed, the tables and chairs cherished by Mary Kate, the thatched roof, emerald green half-door, and whitewashed front all combine to enchant every visitor. The Quiet Man Museum also features the original fishing rod from the movie, Michaeleen’s horse’s original harness, original production notes, as well as newspaper articles from the time the movie was being made, life-sized promotional posters, and costumes for visitors to try on for photos and re-enactments. The Quiet Man Museum is open from April 1 to October 31, from 10 am to 4 pm daily.

The Quiet Man Museum showcases Father Lonergan’s original fishing rod and Michaeleen Og’s horse Napoleon’s authentic harness, as well as a first print of Maurice Walsh’s anthology of short stories, Green Rushes, which served as the basis for The Quiet Man script.
The biggest collection of Irish newspaper articles from the time of the movie’s filming is also housed in the museum, collected extensively from microfiche files at local libraries. This offers enthusiasts a glimpse into what it was like when Hollywood took over the village of Cong in 1951.
