History
Belfast’s murals grew from the Troubles (late 1960s–1998 ceasefire) and function as local memory, political messaging, and evolving public art.
Conservation
Murals are periodically restored and community-led initiatives encourage respectful tourism; keep litter out of memorial gardens and follow guide directions to reduce impact.
