Dublinia is a heritage centre in the heart of Dublin City. Located at the crossroads of St Michael’s Hill, Patrick St, and High Street, Dublinia is fast becoming one of the top attractions to see in Dublin city with almost 125, 000 visitors a year. There are three exciting and interactive exhibitions to be seen at Dublinia.

The second exhibition is ‘Medieval Dublin’, where you learn of the warfare, crime and punishment, death and disease and even medical remedies of 700 years ago. See the city as it would have looked then in a display featuring a busy medieval market, a rich merchant’s house and a noisy medieval street.
The third and final exhibition is the ‘History hunters’, in this exhibition you will see genuine Viking and Medieval artefacts including those of a medieval skeleton, found in Dublin. The exhibition even includes an excavation site and a lab for you to discover more and test your own newfound archaeology skills.
A visit to Dublinia is a must see to learn all about Dublin’s long and colourful history and is a fun day out for visitors of all ages.
