From 1927 the top floor of the Governors house was used as a radio broadcasting station by 6CK, the first official radio station in Cork, Ireland. 6CK was succeeded by a national radio station- Radio Éireann (now Raidió Teilifís Éireann) and broadcasting continued at the Gaol until the 1950s. 2 Special Visitor Attractions - same location!
