Try on Viking clothes, become a slave and stroll down a noisy street. Visit a smoky and cramped Viking house and learn about the myths and mysteries surrounding the Vikings and their legacy.
Temporary Exhibitions: Medieval Dublin, a vibrant yet unpredictable place where magic, superstition, and ancient traditions influenced daily life. A new exhibition at Dublinia, running from the 25th of October 2024 to March 2026. In medieval times, Dublin and Ireland were lands of mystery, uncertainty, and danger. People turned to magic for a sense of control over these unpredictable forces.
St Michael's Tower: Dublinia’s late seventeenth century viewing tower belonged to the church of St Michael’s the Archangel, which once stood at the site now occupied by Dublinia. The original medieval tower, of the medieval St Michael’s church, was incorporated into the design of the Synod Hall. Remnants of the tower’s medieval past can be seen in the footprint of the nineteenth century building.
