Formerly a borough, Lisburn was granted city status in 2002 as part of Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee celebrations. It is the third-largest city in Northern Ireland. Lisburn is one of the constituent cities that make up the Dublin-Belfast corridor region which has a population of just under 3 million.
Name
The town was originally known as Lisnagarvy (also spelt Lisnagarvey, Lisnegarvey, Lisnegarvy, Lisnegarvagh or Lisnagarvagh) after the townland in which it formed. This is derived fromIrish Lios na gCearrbhach, meaning "ringfort of the gamesters/gamblers".
Leigh Rayment's historical List of Members of the Irish House of Commons() cites: Johnston-Liik, Edith Mary (2002). The History of the Irish Parliament 1692-1800 (6 volumes). Ulster Historical Foundation.
Created in 1964, the council is the second largest in the Belfast Metropolitan Area. Council headquarters are in the city of Lisburn. It was the second-largest council area in Northern Ireland with over 120,000 people and an area of 174 square miles (450km2) of southwest Antrim and northwest Down. It stretches from Glenavy and Dundrod in the north to Dromara and Hillsborough in the south and from Drumbo in the east to Moira and Aghalee in the west.

Lisburn City - A Walk Through the City - County Antrim. Check out Lisburn Northern Ireland
A short walk around Lisburn City - only 8 miles southwest from Belfast City Centre - on the River Lagan - well worth a visit.
For people wondering where is Lisburn in Northern Ireland - it's just outside of Belfast - so it is easy to get to, if you have some time to spare to check out the area.
Lisburn is the third largest city in Northern Ireland and that gives it much of importance just like the attention that is always given to Belfast - it is even 8 miles northwest from Belfast's city centre, which means that it is also close for people to reach and check what it has for them.
This city, Lisburn, is situated on River Lagan and thus it forms the boundary between county Antrim and county Down. Lisburn is also part of Belfast Metropolitan Area and it has several touristic attractions o...

A short walk around Lisburn City - only 8 miles southwest from Belfast City Centre - on the River Lagan - well worth a visit.
For people wondering where is Lisburn in Northern Ireland - it's just outside of Belfast - so it is easy to get to, if you have some time to spare to check out the area.
Lisburn is the third largest city in Northern Ireland and that gives it much of importance just like the attention that is always given to Belfast - it is even 8 miles northwest from Belfast's city centre, which means that it is also close for people to reach and check what it has for them.
This city, Lisburn, is situated on River Lagan and thus it forms the boundary between county Antrim and county Down. Lisburn is also part of Belfast Metropolitan Area and it has several touristic attractions or places that people could visit while they are in the city, which include the Irish Linen Museum (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKlpg210Zs8), Christ Church Cathedral (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf61UklRNDA), as well as Lisburn Castle Gardens.
During our visit to Lisburn - was not the first time though :-) - we managed to walk down the streets of the city, check those shops and boutiques scattered all around the place, and eventually entering those touristic attractions and landmarks which managed to be the spotlight of Lisburn in general, and for all the shopping lovers out there, Lisburn is also considered one of the biggest shopping destinations in Northern Ireland with Bow Street Mall that occupies over 70 stores.
The Irish Linen Centre and Lisburn Museum started its journey with dealing with the local history regarding Lisburn and the Lagan Valley but it was then integrated with the history of textiles in 1994 when the Irish linen centre opened. This linen centre and museum is worth the visit because it collects and preserves items from the history of both Ireland's linen industry and the Lagan Valley.
In this museum, there are even some galleries to walk through and see those materials which are placed regarding Lisburn's cultural scene that focuses on local personalities, artists, poets, and writers.
In addition to visiting the place to explore more about the history of Lisburn when it comes to this industry, in this place there are also some free guided tours offered as well as those workshops that help the visitors in exploring the history of Irish linen and also a good day out for the school children :-)
Our next stop in Lisburn city was the Christ Church Cathedral. The Christ Church Cathedral was first called and referred to as St. Thomas's Church. This church was previously burnt down and the work which you will find standing today is commenced in 1708 after this incidence. After the reconstruction that took place in 1662, St. Thomas was designated the cathedral church. From that point, Christ Church Cathedral became one of the most important places to visit when it comes to Lisburn city in Northern Ireland.
Moving forward with the rest of our trip, we reached the next stop which we also recommend for all those who would be visiting Lisburn which is the Castle Gardens (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glfWJRdp7CU). Lisburn Castle Gardens might be one of the most visited places in the city that also carries some ties with history. This place is good for those who want to walk among nature or just sit there relaxing their minds, it is also a perfect destination for those who want to see some of the old statues which might be taking their place in the garden.
The upper section of the garden dates back to the late Victorian times and there are some historical significant features that include the 1677 red sandstone gateway, the Wallace drinking fountain, and a memorable erected in 1891 that honors Lisburn's landlord Sir Richard Wallace.
All these things tell that the gardens is related back to history and that even comes in addition to some of the artifacts which were found in it and which most of them are displayed at the museum in the centre of the city.
Lisburn is filled with places to visit and inspect and in addition to those which we have mentioned and been to, there is also the Island Arts Centre (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-aAO4AtMqY), the famous Giant's Ring (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YoFcUDGCRY), and checking those different events which might be only taking place in the city annually, such as the Christmas market for example (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6o4ZXaQGTg) or else checking something like the Foote Farm which is held annually and which allows people to get to the farm on weekends and experience the day there (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nCbo3b4B5Q).
Being the third largest city in Northern Ireland should be enough to convince you to come and check this city, but also the attractions will bring you right here.

Lisburn Castle Gardens might be one of the most visited places in the city that also carries some ties with history. This place is good for those who want to walk among nature or just sit there relaxing their minds, it is also a perfect destination for those who want to see some of the old statues which might be taking their place in the garden.
The upper section of the garden dates back to the late Victorian times and there are some historical significant features that include the 1677 red sandstone gateway, the Wallace drinking fountain, and a memorable erected in 1891 that honors Lisburn's landlord Sir Richard Wallace.
All these things tell that the gardens is related back to history and that even comes in addition to some of the artifacts which were found in it and which most of them are displayed at the museum in the centre of the city.
Lisburn is filled with places to visit and inspect and in addition to those which we have mentioned and been to, there is also the Island Arts Centre (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-aAO4AtMqY), the famous Giant's Ring (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YoFcUDGCRY), and checking those different events which might be only taking place in the city annually, such as the Christmas market for example (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6o4ZXaQGTg) or else checking something like the Foote Farm which is held annually and which allows people to get to the farm on weekends and experience the day there (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nCbo3b4B5Q).
Being the third largest city in Northern Ireland should be enough to convince you to come and check this city, but also the attractions will bring you right here.

Join me for a walk around the heart of the third-largest city in Northern Ireland: Lisburn! The birthplace of Ireland's linen trade, and the home of a range of riveting historic landmarks from its former castle to a soaring cathedral, and much more - Lisburn isn't often touted as one of the main destinations on a trip to Northern Ireland, but there's a lot more to the city than first meets the eye!
On our walk around Lisburn, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Castle Gardens, the Wallace Memorial Fountain, Castle House, Lisburn War Memorial, Lisburn Old Town Hall, Market Square, the Nicholson Statue, Market House (Lisburn Museum & Irish Linen Centre), Bow Street, Haslem's Lane, Lisburn Square, Smithfield Square, Market Street, Lisburn First Presbyterian Church, Lisburn UDR Memorial, Lisburn Cathedral, Lisburn Orange Hall, Railway Street Presbyterian Church, the Bridge Community Club, and Lisburn Railway Station.

The Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) now say that twenty people were injured in today’s Irish Republican Army (IRA) bomb-attack in Lisburn, County Antrim, which devastated the town’s shopping centre. Most of those hurt in the lunchtime blast suffered minor injuries and shock.
A short walk around Lisburn City - only 8 miles southwest from Belfast City Centre - on the River Lagan - well worth a visit.
For people wondering where is Lisburn in Northern Ireland - it's just outside of Belfast - so it is easy to get to, if you have some time to spare to check out the area.
Lisburn is the third largest city in Northern Ireland and that gives it much of importance just like the attention that is always given to Belfast - it is even 8 miles northwest from Belfast's city centre, which means that it is also close for people to reach and check what it has for them.
This city, Lisburn, is situated on River Lagan and thus it forms the boundary between county Antrim and county Down. Lisburn is also part of Belfast Metropolitan Area and it has several touristic attractions or places that people could visit while they are in the city, which include the Irish Linen Museum (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKlpg210Zs8), Christ Church Cathedral (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf61UklRNDA), as well as Lisburn Castle Gardens.
During our visit to Lisburn - was not the first time though :-) - we managed to walk down the streets of the city, check those shops and boutiques scattered all around the place, and eventually entering those touristic attractions and landmarks which managed to be the spotlight of Lisburn in general, and for all the shopping lovers out there, Lisburn is also considered one of the biggest shopping destinations in Northern Ireland with Bow Street Mall that occupies over 70 stores.
The Irish Linen Centre and Lisburn Museum started its journey with dealing with the local history regarding Lisburn and the Lagan Valley but it was then integrated with the history of textiles in 1994 when the Irish linen centre opened. This linen centre and museum is worth the visit because it collects and preserves items from the history of both Ireland's linen industry and the Lagan Valley.
In this museum, there are even some galleries to walk through and see those materials which are placed regarding Lisburn's cultural scene that focuses on local personalities, artists, poets, and writers.
In addition to visiting the place to explore more about the history of Lisburn when it comes to this industry, in this place there are also some free guided tours offered as well as those workshops that help the visitors in exploring the history of Irish linen and also a good day out for the school children :-)
Our next stop in Lisburn city was the Christ Church Cathedral. The Christ Church Cathedral was first called and referred to as St. Thomas's Church. This church was previously burnt down and the work which you will find standing today is commenced in 1708 after this incidence. After the reconstruction that took place in 1662, St. Thomas was designated the cathedral church. From that point, Christ Church Cathedral became one of the most important places to visit when it comes to Lisburn city in Northern Ireland.
Moving forward with the rest of our trip, we reached the next stop which we also recommend for all those who would be visiting Lisburn which is the Castle Gardens (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glfWJRdp7CU). Lisburn Castle Gardens might be one of the most visited places in the city that also carries some ties with history. This place is good for those who want to walk among nature or just sit there relaxing their minds, it is also a perfect destination for those who want to see some of the old statues which might be taking their place in the garden.

Formerly a borough, Lisburn was granted city status in 2002 as part of Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee celebrations. It is the third-largest city in Northern Ireland. Lisburn is one of the constituent cities that make up the Dublin-Belfast corridor region which has a population of just under 3 million.
Name
The town was originally known as Lisnagarvy (also spelt Lisnagarvey, Lisnegarvey, Lisnegarvy, Lisnegarvagh or Lisnagarvagh) after the townland in which it formed. This is derived fromIrish Lios na gCearrbhach, meaning "ringfort of the gamesters/gamblers".
Osbournes! Ha ha ha ha ha! Aie aie aie aie aie aie! Ozzy puts bats down his throat Real different people live in his home "Cosby, he's not," you complain "He's burned out from drugs and forgets his own name!" Censors soon start bleeping, "What did he just say?" I know enough to tell it's not a statement of faith I know enough to tell Ozzy may need saved Let's go I've listened to Priest and I've listened to Crüe I've watched Alice Cooper get saved out of booze One person's addictions can ruin his soul But Jesus saved Alice, so you never know Metal groups still screaming. Why are we so tame? They're going off the trail, but thy ain't insane They're going off the trail, 'cause we're lazy brains Why don't we think 'bout Romans 1 through 3 You gotta listen to God's Word Yeah, yeah There was a cola war and Ozzy succumbed He'll sell Mr. Bubble when MTV's done Lately, I just am not scared The devilish Ozzy -- he just isn't there Maybe he's not really who and what you claimed I know what Ozzy says but he may still change
