Wexford's history goes back to pre-Christian times. Above all, the county is rich in memories of the 1798 rising, when insurgent pikemen fought heroically against overwhelming odds. Wexford's name derives from Waesfjoed, a norse word meaning estuary of mud flats. It thrived as a coastal county centered around Wexford town with lots of sea traffic mostly from England and Wales.
