On July 23, 2026, Princess Anne visited County Fermanagh to celebrate the 85th anniversary of the Air Training Corps. The Princess first visited St Tighernach’s Church of Ireland and Sacred Heart Church, where 86 airmen who died during the Second World War are laid to rest. She also planted an Irish yew tree during her visit to the Castle Archdale Museum.
The Princess was welcomed by Mr Conaire McNeary, Warden of Castle Archdale Museum, who provided an overview of the former RAF station, the NIEA’s work today, and the current Castle Archdale at War exhibition. Castle Archdale Country Park is one of the most significant Second World War heritage sites in Northern Ireland.
