Before it became known as Cobh, the town was called Queenstown.
The name was adopted in 1849 to commemorate Queen Victoria's first visit to Ireland.
It was under this name that the town became famous around the world as Titanic's final port of call on 11 April 1912.
In 1920, following Irish independence, the town officially reverted to its original Irish name, Cobh.
