Ballinamuck is one of the most historic towns in Longford due to a battle fought there in 1798. The Battle of Ballinamuck pitted the combined Irish and French forces under General Humbert and General Blake against the English under Lord Cornwallis. The name Ballinamuck is derived from the original Irish language name Beal Atha na Muice, which means 'the mouth of the ford of the pig'. According to legend, a famous black pig rooted up a trench, from the Dane's Cast in Armagh through Ballinamuck until it arrived at the Ford of Lough Gowna, where a man struck it with a stone and thus put an end to the pig's rooting! The Garden of Remembrance was opened in 1998 on the site of the old court house to commemorate the bicentenary of the Battle of Ballinamuck on 8 September 1798. Following on the Irish Rebellion of 1798, a French invasion force landed near Killala in County Mayo on August 22, hoping to join forces with Irish rebels. The 1798 Visitors Centre presents a lively exhibition which gives details of the Year of the French and the Battle of Ballinamuck which took place in 1798. It is located in the historic former Royal Irish Constabulary barracks. The centre was officially opened by Mary McAleese, then President of Ireland, in July 1999 and houses a fascinating exhibition.
