Free Derry Corner is a historical landmark in the Bogside neighbourhood of Derry, Northern Ireland, which lies in the intersection of the Lecky Road, Rossville Street and Fahan Street. A free-standing gable wall commemorates Free Derry, a self-declared autonomous nationalist area of Derry that existed between 1969 and 1972. On the corner is a memorial to the 1981 hunger strikers and several murals. There is also a memorial to those who died engaging in paramilitary activity as part of the Provisional IRA's Derry Brigade.

| - Free Derry Corner je historická památka v čtvrti Bogside ve městě Derry v Severním Irsku mezi ulicemi Leckie Road, Rossville Street a Fahan Street. Volně stojící zeď připomíná tzv. Free Derry – autonomní nacionalistickou oblast, která existovala ve městě Derry v letech 1969 až 1972. Poblíž se nachází památník hladovky irských vězňů v roce 1981. Také se tam nachází památník věnovaný obětem polovojenských aktivit prozatímní irské republikánské armády (PIRA) v Derry. V lednu 1969 místní aktivista John "Caker" Casey napsal na zeď nápis: "You are now entering Free Derry". Když britský ministr vnitra Jim Callaghan navštívil Derry v srpnu 1969 byla zeď natřena na bílo a nápis "You are now entering Free Derry" byl profesionálně přepsán na černo. Domy na Leckie Road a Fahan Street byly následně zbořeny ale zeď byla zachována. Od té doby byl nápis mnohokrát přemalován. Náměstí se stalo známé jako Free Derry Corner díky obyvatelům. Náměstí se nachází na okraji čtvrti Bogside a společně s okolními ulicemi bylo svědkem bitva o Bitvy o Bogside v roce 1969 a Krvavé neděle v roce 1972. Náměstí bylo prvním místem, kde vypukly pouliční nepokoje během bitvy. Po Bitvě o Bogside obyvatelé oslavovali na Free Derry Corner. (cs)
- Free Derry Corner is a historical landmark in the Bogside neighbourhood of Derry, Northern Ireland, which lies in the intersection of the Lecky Road, Rossville Street and Fahan Street. A free-standing gable wall commemorates Free Derry, a self-declared autonomous nationalist area of Derry that existed between 1969 and 1972. On the corner is a memorial to the 1981 hunger strikers and several murals. There is also a memorial to those who died engaging in paramilitary activity as part of the Provisional IRA's Derry Brigade. On 5 January 1969 a local activist, long believed to be John "Caker" Casey, but who might have been Liam Hillen, painted graffiti on a gable wall at the end of a housing terrace stating "You are now entering Free Derry". When the British Home Secretary, Jim Callaghan, visited Derry in August 1969, the "Free Derry" wall was painted white and the "You are now entering Free Derry" sign was professionally re-painted in black lettering. The area in front of the wall became known as Free Derry Corner by the inhabitants. It and the surrounding streets were the scene of the Battle of the Bogside in 1969 and Bloody Sunday in 1972. The houses on Lecky Road and Fahan Street were subsequently demolished, but the wall was retained. It has been repainted at frequent intervals. As currently situated, it now lies in the central reservation of Lecky Road, which was upgraded to a dual carriageway sometime following the demolition of the original terraced houses.

- Free Derry Corner är ett torg i stadsdelen Bogside i Derry, Nordirland som ligger i korsningen mellan Lecky Road, Rossville Street och Fahan Street. På en väggmålning av den lokale aktivisten John "Caker" Casey från januari 1969 står det: "Du går nu in i Free Derry". Torget kom att kallas Free Derry Corner av invånarna, medan media kallade den "the area". Torget ligger i utkanten av Bogside och har tillsammans med omkringliggande gator varit skådeplatsen för den blodiga söndagen och slaget om Bogside. På grund av torgets läge bildades frontlinjerna där när gatustrider utbröt. Efter segern i slaget om Bogside firade invånarna från stadsdelen på Free Derry Corner den 30 och 31 augusti 1969, tillsammans med många kända irländare. Idag är torget större än på 1960- och 1970-talet, då flera hus har rivits eller bränts ner under konflikten. Huset där Casey målade sin välkomstfras finns inte heller kvar, men väggen med målningen är bevarad, tillsammans med en av hans andra målningar på baksidan av väggen. På Free Derry Corner finns ett minnesmärke över hungerstrejken i Nordirland 1981 och ett flertal andra väggmålningar. Dessutom finns en minnessten till hyllning för de som dött i tjänst för Provisoriska IRA:s Derry-brigad. (sv)
