County Hall (Irish: Áras an Chontae, Caisleán an Bharraigh) is a municipal facility on The Mall in Castlebar, County Mayo, Ireland.

History[]

The site currently occupied by County Hall was home to the county infirmary until 1932.[1] Mayo County Council, which had previously held its meetings in Castlebar Courthouse,[2] acquired the site and used it as a machinery yard and fire station before converting it for use as the new county council offices in 1989.[3][4]
