Dublin has a lot of great museums, and many of them are free. We visited several, with a focus on archaeology, art, and history:
Dublin City Gallery – the Hugh Lane
National Museum – Decorative Arts and History
A note on EPIC-The Irish Emigrant Museum
We visited this venue, which is not really a museum, but instead it is a set of interactive media exhibitions telling the story of Irish emigrants throughout the ages. The exhibits provide interesting information, but without any significant artifacts, it seems like it shouldn’t be presented as a museum. The admission was higher than most museums.
