Explore Dublin's Viking and medieval periods at a museum that offers an interactive journey back in time. This immersive experience allows you to engage with the history of Dublin through your senses and feel what life was like during those fascinating periods.
When you visit the Dublinia museum, you travel back in time to explore the rich history that shaped Dublin into the vibrant city it is today. The museum offers a fascinating glimpse into two key periods of history: the Viking era and the medieval times.
In the late 9th century, the Vikings established Dublin as a prosperous trading hub, using the River Liffey as their main port. At Dublinia museum, witness the Vikings' impressive metal and woodworking craftsmanship. After their fall, the Normans took over in the late 12th century, building fortifications and castles such as the imposing Dublin Castle. Explore the medieval period and the city's political instability at its center.
