Williamite Society

The Williamite Society is an organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history and legacy of William of Orange, who led the Williamite War in Ireland (1689–1691). It aims to study and commemorate his role in shaping Irish and British history, particularly the Glorious Revolution of 1688 that resulted in constitutional changes and the decline of absolute monarchy. The society often organizes lectures, events, and publications to foster understanding and appreciation of that period’s historical significance. It appeals to those interested in the political, cultural, and historical impacts of William’s reign and the subsequent changes in Ireland and Britain.
