Dublinia

A brilliant and very interesting museum about Medieval and Viking Dublin. A variety of learning methods — visual, auditory, reading, physical — so everyone can learn about this period in History. I personally am not a big fan of Irish history but this tour definitely re-sparked my interest!! Towards the end of the Museum there is a lovely gift shop and cafe.

This was a totally cool and interesting museum. It explains how the Vikings helped shape Dublin into what it is today. It shows Dublin in medieval times compared to today and how not much has changed, but it has changed at the same time. I make silent travel videos and review hotels and their amenities.  Like, follow and share on Y0uTube. Search: Inexperienced traveler. See you there. Thank you!

Our visit to Dublinia was a huge hit with the whole family — especially the kids! From the moment we stepped inside, we were transported back in time to the age of the Vikings and medieval Dublin. The museum’s immersive exhibits and interactive elements make history feel alive rather than just something to read about

Give a nice insight of Dublin's past. The two highlights for me were the tower which give amazing views across the city and the bridge across to Christchurch. Tower is particularly impressive including (and be warned) the 100 or more steps it takes to reach the top. There is a nice shop and cafe on the 3rd floor. This building was a Synott Hall and having attended a talk on the top floor auditorium the roof there would be as much of an attraction as anything.

This is a really interesting and absorbing interactive experience, great for children of all ages and adults due to the life-like models, clothing and sets and the three floors which focus on different aspects of Viking Dublin. We spent two hours there and my kids, 11, 9 and 6 couldn't get enough of it! I would highly recommend it! The spell jar making is cute for very young kids but it is misleading to refer to it as a workshop...older kids who are into stones, gems, herbology and properties of such might be disappointed.

As a person who has lived in dublin and have learned about the past, back in primary school, it was really good to learn about it all again, from the viking times to the medieval times! I loved how interactive it was as well!

Hello, we went to Dublinia on Thursday at one o'clock, a group of us, to do a tour of the museum. What a great time we had, such information, lovely exhibits covering all age groups. We were fascinated watching the development of Dublin and how the Vikings, learning things like that. It's the biggest Viking graveyard outside of Scandinavia with, I think it's 80% of Viking graves are within Dublin and it's amazing. There was just so much to see and then obviously through the centuries as Dublin developed. Very good. Ivan and myself in costume settling a point of order. 😎

I loved this museum/tower with an awesome view of Dublin when I went atop the watch tower. There are multiple levels, each a specific period or time in Dublin's history. There are interactive screens and a reproduction of an old hovel house.
