Dublinia Viking Museum - Dublin Ireland
Dublinia Viking Museum in Dublin is an interesting museum to visit on any trip to the capital. It contains an amazing array of displays that charts the history of the Vikings in Ireland - Medieval Dublin. This Viking experience is one of the top things to do in the city and great for families. There is a Viking house and Viking ship to see!
Dublinia Viking Museum is located at the crossroads of the medieval city at Christchurch, the point where modern and old Dublin are believed to meet. The main reason behind bringing this museum to life is to reveal the old history of Dublin in an exciting way that would bring all people to share, engage, and learn something before they leave the place.
Inside Dublinia Viking Museum, there are four different exhibitions for one to enter and through which the visitor will come out with some information about the citizens of Dublin throughout the history by visiting the vikings and medieval Dublin, see archaeology as a history hunter, and climb the St. Michael's tower.
What we enjoyed the most about visiting this place is that we immediately felt that we have traveled back in time once we stepped in to know more about viking in Dublin and its history. Inside this place, you will not only get introduced to the history of the vikings but you will also get the chance to try their clothes, get on board of a viking warship, know more about their skills and see their weapons, visit a cramped viking house, become a slave, and even learn their alphabet and hear their poetry and sagas; you could actually become a real viking through your visit to this place.
The second part in the museum will also provide you with the same kind of experience, which is the Medieval Dublin. In this part, you will also get the chance to travel back to that time and learn more about the warfare, the crime and punishment, death and disease and you might even get introduced to some of the remedies which were used more than 700 years back, such as the remedy for toothache. Inside the medieval fair of the museum, you will also learn about the games of that time, enjoy the spicy aroma, visit the kitchen of a rich merchant and walk through one of the streets of that time.
We believe that this museum is one of the different important things to do in Dublin, Ireland, because of all the things it will bring and inform you with, just in the same way it did to us. In addition to stepping inside the old world of the vikings and the medieval times, we were also taken through the exhibition that showed us how the history hunters are trying to dig deep behind information to uncover the history if Ireland through knowing more about the lifestyles of their ancestors. There are skeletons, maps, and even voices of the old language that will bring people to the point where they will compare the past and the present and try to see how the past actually managed to influence the present.
Coming to the last part of this museum is the St. Michael's Tower and which is a real old medieval tower that has been renovated and is now part of the Dublinia Viking Museum that let people climb 96 steps to come to the point where they will be able to view Dublin city from above, learn more about the history of this tower and also get the chance to know more about the surrounding area.
The best thing about this museum - according to what we have seen inside - is the idea of having those people dressed in customized clothes that look like the ones worn in the old days and they also take specific roles to give the visitors that feeling that they have really stepped in the medieval or viking times - they appear as actors, so you might find beggars, vikings, etc.
This place is open all year long - of course apart from the 24th, 25th, and 26th of December - so you will always get the chance to visit it anytime you are visiting Dublin but make sure you are keeping up with the working hours in order not to mix things up. The Dublinia Viking Museum opens from 10 AM until 6:30 PM from March to September and the last entry allowed is at 5:30 PM. The other half of the year, October to February, this place opens from 10 AM to 5:30 PM and the last entry allowed is at 4:30 PM. It is always better to give this place about 90 minutes in your schedule when you are visiting Dublin city and doing a little bit of tourism there.
Dublin city, the capital of Ireland, is a place to attract lots of tourists to it for the several attractions and landmarks that one could come across and see. There is the Merrion square in Dublin which is all about the history of the place and the garden found in it ( there is also the Four Courts along the River Liffey ( one could manage to visit the Molly Malone statue ( and get introduced to this rich city through other places and other ways (

Views Around Drogheda, County Louth & County Meath, Ireland, 5th March, 2019
I've just added a new video to my Tourism: Ireland playlist: of an exploration of Drogheda in Ireland. Drogheda is is one of the oldest towns in Ireland. It is known for its tourism and as a centre of industry and medical care. It is located on the Dublin–Belfast corridor on the east coast of Ireland, mostly in County Louth but with the south fringes of the town in County Meath, 49 km or 30 miles north of Dublin, and has a population of approximately 41,000 inhabitants (2016), making it the third largest town by population in all of Ireland. It is the last bridging point on the River Boyne before it enters the Irish Sea. To read more about Drogheda, click here: .
This film features footage from a circular walk around the town, which begins and ends at the railway station. The film features views of the station, streets, churches, architecture, bridges, River Boyne, statues, historic landmarks and art.

Ireland Top Attractions; The Blacksmith, The Baker, The Brewer And More
Visit for more.
Check out our guide to our Top Ten Attractions from the past year. At 10, Ashford Castle
The rooms at Ashford are complete with four poster beds , stand alone baths and beautiful chandeliers.
At 9, Jameson Distillery
John Jameson, who by the way shares his initials by the way with James Joyce, something James Joyce was very happy about because this was his favourite whiskey and he mentioned it a few times in Ulysees.
At 8, The Redhead Convention, Cork
At 7, Adare Manor Falconry
So we're here with Oscar. Oscar, the eagle owl.
At 6, Scariff Harbour Festival
In Ireland we had something similar. Its called the Cosmic library. The Druids believed the very same understanding. The trees stand silently in non judgement. And record everything thats ever happened. If we need to draw aon wisdom or knowledge, its all in the trees. The Brehon law was distributed by poets. The poets didn't carry the law in books. They embodied the law off by heart, in their hearts
At 5, Puck Fair Killarney
The most famous legend relates back to the 17th century when Oliver Cromwell and his army were raiding Irish villages. So the Gathering, the Fair day andthe Scattering.
At 4, Lughnasa Festival at Craggaunowen.
Now, we're here at the Lughnasa festival and Lughnasa comes from Lugh who was the God of arts and crafts.
At 3, Bunratty Folk Park
So, we're just outside the fisherman's cottage so its a kind of humble setting and we're about to see how butter is made.
So we're going to visit an old tyle schoolhouse now from the nineteenth century. And talk to the head teacher. Just about what education back then was all about.
At 2, Galway Arts Festival
Well this is a circus. I put it in the category of circus. But actually it's a bit of physical theatre, acrobatics and also object manipulation.
At number 1, King John's Castle
Igor Sparks is my name. I'm the village blacksmith here. In KIng John's castle. King John's Castle. Here we are.
So this would have been a typical helmet. Its Viking times. Viking Times. Right. Like that idea about the horns coming out of it, that's only Hollywood.
