The bog body exhibit in the gold gallery takes you back to the Iron Age and gives you a glimpse into the Irish world at the time. Read more

Good selection of exhibits . Compared to the natural history museum around the corner it's more modern, with some excellent exhibits . Beautiful building, too.

Nice, free entry. Has sections on Vikings & Medieval Ireland which was nice to see. Also good giftshop.

It is a great place for people who are interested in Celtic culture and Irish ancient history. You also can find interesting things about ancient Egypt and Vikings.

Yarn Lam

It’s free, with fascinating exhibits on Irish history - bog people , mediaeval history, the Brian Boru legend. Spend half a quiet day here. All well laid-out.

I missed a bit more of information regarding the objects exposed, but overall is a really good experience.

You could wander the halls for 1/2 the day. The ‘Bog Man’ is the highlight IMO

Informative and small museum . Easy to explore with young kids.

It's free but boring. Go to the natural history museum instead for an amazing collection of animals. Both closed Mondays!

History nerds might need several hours here. Besides the bog bodies , don't miss the ancient gold jewelry .
