"Interesting Exhibits Just down the road from its more popular neighbor, the National Gallery of Ireland , the NLE has interesting shows and fewer crowds. I recently saw an exhibition on Yeats and one on the 1913 Dublin Lockout. Even if you only have a short time, this is an easy and interesting place to check out. Exhibitions are posted online."
