About

The Little Museum of Dublin is a vibrant, youth‑sized walk through 20th‑century Irish history. Housed in a Georgian townhouse overlooking St. Stephen’s Green, the museum mixes humour, storytelling and interactive displays to bring Dublin’s past to life in just 29 minutes. Visitors stroll through themed galleries – from the Golden Age of Dublin to the life‑size U2 portrait – and stop for free civics classes and the City of a Thousand Welcomes ambassador programme. A charming shop, brief historical talk, and the chance to meet the museum’s ever‑cheerful guides make a visit both quick and memorable.
