  • A series of fly-thru clips from RealSim's interactive 3D model of Medieval Galway based on the Pictorial Map of Galway (circa 1651).
    The model will shortly be on display in Galway City Museum

    Thank you all for your very kind comments. We are also open to critical review, and therefore we would like to respond to the argument made by Linda that the model is not Medieval by virtue of the 17th century map upon which it is based.
    The model is primarily a 3D reconstruction of the Pictorial Map of Galway shown at the start of the movie. Although generally referred to as the ‘1651 map’ this is a misnomer and scholars now state that it was printed some time during the years 1660-86. The extended title of the Pictorial Map tells the reader that it is a delineation historica - a ‘historical delineation’ - and as such, everything it shows is not necessarily represented accurately in either time or space. Galway is very much a Medieval City and the architecture shown in the map and animation is the culmination of 400 years of building from the city’s beginnings in the late 13th century, stopping just short of the Cromwellian invasion. This model will go on display in the Medieval Gallery at the Museum next to a display which shows the Pictorial Map as redrawn by the local historian James Hardiman. The map shows wide, clean streets which reflect the strict rules on rubbish which were set out in the Galway Corporation's Charter and our model in turn reflects this. Animating the model was never part of the commission and would be a false representation of the map which shows only two people within the city walls!
    Populating the model with city wide animated characters is something we would love to do, and is in our development pipeline as soon as we have the time and resources to do it.

    Fantastic. Really love this. So great to be able to see the transition from medieval to modern and not have to rely on an inaccurate imagination! Well done to all involved.

    Fantastic project!! And fun to see the model of modern Galway contrasted with the streets of earlier Galway. But I have to say that, as a medievalist, it is hard to call Galway in the seventeenth century (and in the middle of the invasion of Cromwell at that) "medieval." Yes, the city probably was a bigger version of its medieval form--and urban architecture didn't actually change significantly until the Industrial Revolution--but it's kind of a misidentification to call it medieval. But the reconstruction is fantastic!

      I know your comment is 4 years old now, but I had to reply. “Medieval” culture tended to hang around a bit longer in the European periphery, which Ireland was at the time, especially western Ireland. So 17th cent Galway was indeed “medieval” compared to what was happening culturally in Italy or France.

    Back in the middle ages, based on The book of hours and other paintings, people used to paint their towers and houses in different colours. Is there any archaeological trace of it over walls??

    Ah man, what have we done to our country?. It used to be such a magical place and still is in many ways. We just tear down the past, remove our own individual architecture and replace it with modern rubbish. We destroy whats left of our very ancient native woodland and replace it with mono crop conifers, which are all over the countryside and mountains instead of our beautiful Oaks and Ash and Rowans which would make our already beautiful countryside more spectacular on another level. We are so lucky to live here, and we cant let our government buy and sell us anymore.

      God bless the wealth and prosperity we have today. Ya can't eat the history or the scenery. Nothing wrong with our governments at all. Try in living in the middle east, Russia or a 100 other different places around the world and see how great their governments are. Always the ungrateful giving out and giving out and giving out and always looking for more of the government. Its a great country with stable social democratic governments. You havent got a clue. Not a clue.

    Greetings from Canada. Thank-you for creating this tour through historic Galway. Wonderful. I've studied the Pictorial Map of Galway and what you've done here brings it all alive. Even the great tree in corner of the cemetery of the Church of St Nicholas! I kept my eyes open for a glimpse of the Great Gate entering the town from the northeast. From the Pictorial Map it must have been a sight to behold yet I didn't see it here - did I miss it?

      Hi Marlene Anderson, thank you for your kind comments. The Great Gate is indeed in the model but was not shown in this promo movie. I'm happy to send you views of it if you wish to email me on gavin@realsim.ie
