Rory Gallagher's favourite guitar, his iconic Fender Stratocaster, is on display at the National Museum at Collins Barracks.

The guitar is just one of over 250 objects, including Michael Collin's slippers, will go on display to the public as part of the biggest expansion of the public galleries in over two decades at the National Museum at Collins Barracks.
