The Embassy of Ireland in London will host a programme of events from October through to December 2021 marking the centenary of the negotiation and signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921.
From 11th October, The Embassy and National Archives of Ireland, in partnership with the British Academy and the Royal Irish Academy, will bring a new exhibition ‘The Treaty 1921: Records from the Archives’ to London for display in the British Academy for two weeks. The exhibition will draw on primary sources held by the National Archives of Ireland, with additional records from the National Archives UK, National Library of Ireland, Military Archives of Ireland and University College Dublin, to give an insight into the recollections of the delegates around the negotiating table in London and map out the events preceding and throughout this important period of British and Irish history.
