Jump behind the scenes at Ireland’s biggest and best museums, as RTE’s Ireland's Hidden Treasures takes viewers on a journey through time and across the country.

Tipperary’s Cashel Folk Museum is set to feature in a new RTÉ documentary, which takes viewers on a deep dive of Irish artefacts and the history behind them.

Running for three weeks from this Sunday at 6.30pm, Ireland’s Hidden Treasures takes audiences into the historic world of the National Museum and National Library of Ireland.

As well as showcasing some hidden treasures in those two Dublin-based buildings, eight other regional museums will be explored over the three weeks.

From Tipperary’s Cashel Folk Museum, to Mayo’s Jackie Clarke Collection and from Kilkenny’s Medieval Mile Museum, to Waterford’s Museum of Time, viewers will get a deep dive tour into fascinating artefacts and Irish historical wonders.

"Ireland's Hidden Treasures is more than a documentary series - it's a celebration of Ireland's enduring legacy and a tribute to those who dedicate their lives to preserving it," an RTÉ spokesperson said.

"This series is set to reignite the appreciation for Ireland's national treasures and the stories they hold."

Tune in to RTÉ 1 on Sunday April 21 at 6.30pm for this 'extraordinary opportunity' to go behind the scenes at Ireland’s museums.
