Fodor's Review:

Looking for something original for your wall? If you're a Fitzgibbon from Limerick, a Cullen from Waterford, or a McSweeney from Cork, chances are that your family designed, begged, borrowed, or stole a coat of arms somewhere in its history. The Heraldic Museum has hundreds of family-crest flags, coins, stamps, and silver, all highlighting the uses and evolution of heraldry in Ireland.
