"It's Ireland's home for modern and contemporary work, with a collection of over 4,500 pieces dating from the 1940s onward; special exhibitions span many media, the formal gardens and historic grounds are worth exploring, and the courtyard regularly hosts public events like film screenings, performance art, food trucks, and live music." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner

On the Grid : Irish Museum of Modern Art

"IMMA is the best place in Ireland to experience contemporary art. Housed in the old 17th century Royal Hospital, the building is drenched in history. With beautiful sprawling grounds, amazing, carefully kept gardens and numerous sculptures there is a lot to see before you even make it inside. The exhibitions are always carefully curated and thought-provoking and it is easy to lose a whole day to the various spaces. A great bookshop and cafe round out the museum’s arsenal. Quite literally, one of the best places in the country." - It's Okay

"Old Architecture for New Art The Irish Museum of Modern Art is located in Kilmainham, just a short trip out of Dublin's City Center on the Luas. Housed in the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, the building and its grounds are vast. The grounds are littered with contemporary public sculpture from Lawrence Weiner to Richard Long, and an equally impressive (though still relatively small) collection from Abramović to Gillick. While much of the building remains under construction the museum is a must for any art enthusiasts visiting Dublin! By Caitlin Anne"

10 Best Museums in Dublin | Condé Nast Traveler

"Situated within the imposing 17th-century Royal Hospital Kilmainham, IMMA is an impressive setting for modern art, one with a cobblestoned courtyard, gardens, and pretty benches overlooking the grounds. The collection itself consists of more than 3,500 pieces, with about 250 works on display at any given time. Although IMMA is a bit outside the city center—about a 30-minute walk from Dame Street—you can combine it with a visit to the Kilmainham Gaol, which is 15 minutes away by foot." - Nicola Brady
