Major refurbishment works at the Wicklow tourist site are nearing completion.
Wicklow Gaol is on track to reopen later this summer.
Councillors have approved a two-year lease for a new operator following a tender process.
Coredate Limited plans to reopen after refurbishment works are completed and the new displays installed.
The historic attraction closed last September for renovation and a change of management.
Council officials say the new operator will build a tourism offering with updated visitor experiences and seasonal events.
