Free Derry Corner is a famous landmark in the Bogside neighborhood of Derry, featuring a gable wall painted with the slogan 'You Are Now Entering Free Derry.' This mural became a powerful symbol of the civil rights movement and the struggle for equality in Northern Ireland during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Visitors can see the wall, which has been repainted over the years, and reflect on its historical significance. It is part of the Bogside Artists' murals, which depict key events of the Troubles. The site is free to visit and offers a poignant connection to Derry's recent history.
