I found it very interesting to learn how many influential writers were from Ireland and Dublin. Each section of the museum had in depth details. You could spend a few hours there reading the information. They also had audio guides that gave a small amount of information and background on each writer. So depending on how in depth you want the experience you could listen to each section and be done within an hour or you can stay and read each poster as well.
Lived in the city for years and didn't know this gem was here a great tribute to some of Ireland's finest writer's. The works of Wilde, Beckett, Joyce are kept here along with many more definitely worth a visit if you come to the city.
Interested in Irish authors and poets? Then the Dublin Writers Museum is worth a stop. Many exhibits and the audio tour is included in the very reasonable ticket price. Don't miss the bookstore in the back of museum.
While I enjoyed it, it is not worth the 7,50€ price of admission even though the building is beautiful and you can see some.
It should amalgamate with The James Joyce Centre as while the building is an elegant example of its time, the contents are sparse and border on amateur. Clearly they do not own enough manuscripts and original material to warrant the museum’s title. The cheerless front desk doesn’t help as they relieve you of your entry fee. Disappointing given my expectation on what it could have been. I’d bypass this place and head straight to the Francis Bacon exhibit in the gallery next door.
Nice museum if you are interested on the Irish writer's history, but doesn't worth the 7,50 euro they charge you.
A beautiful old building with an enormous amount of information on Irish writing history. Reminded me of the museums of old.
While this was generally interesting and brimming with information, it's not child-friendly. While it ostensibly only has two rooms, we were there for a good 2.5h which was well worth the price of the family ticket. However, as mentioned above, we found the density of the text placards to not be very favourable for children or people with Dyslexia and came up with our own worksheet to keep our 8yr old entertained. Aside from that probably our own fault - we did very little research beforehand we found the museum very interesting. The breath of information presented was a lot more than I would have expected, and I've come away with some new female authors for my reading list.
A good few artifacts in this fabulous period house. Not overwhelming; allow about an hour and a half to see everything.
English literature students who have read their History of Literature books thoroughly, may not benefit much from this museum. The pros however include early copies of famous works displayed here and the paintings of rare painters. The audio guide is a great help. The the curator is a jolly person with a good sense of humour.
