Overview
Step into Dublin’s past at Dublinia, set in the heart of the city’s historic quarter at Christ Church. Housed in the stunning 19th-century Synod Hall where Viking and medieval Dublin once thrived, Dublinia brings over 1,000 years of the city’s past to life through immersive exhibitions, engaging tours and authentic storytelling.
You’ll begin aboard a Viking warship and experience the sights, sounds and smells of the city during Viking and Medieval times. Try on traditional Viking clothing, explore everyday tools and weapons and uncover the myths and mysteries that shaped Viking life.
Continue into medieval Dublin and experience the city in transition. Discover life inside a merchant’s kitchen, learn about medieval medicine, punishment, and daily survival, and explore an authentic city street brought to life with sounds and stories.
Dive deeper into Dublin’s rich heritage through audio-visual storytelling and fascinating artefacts on loan from the National Museum of Ireland, including finds from the iconic Wood Quay excavations that offer a rare and powerful glimpse into everyday life in Viking-age Dublin.
Looking for a different perspective on the city? Climb St Michael's Tower (96 steps) for incredible views over Dublin!

Enjoyable Experience in Dublin
KristinThis was a very cool and interactive experience. My husband and I are visiting our daughter who is studying abroad this semester in Dublin. We all enjoyed learning about Dublin’s Viking history, trying on the tunics and Viking helmet, seeing the changes through the centuries. Highly recommend if you have an hour or two in Dublin.
Very interesting.
SergioVery interesting. The history of Dublin described very well.
Fun experience
Robin ShaddixVery informative and interesting history! Fun interactive experience. Highly recommend.
Good for Viking history in Dublin
ChrisI liked this attraction and there were a couple of actors to answer questions (not from me but others). Overall, an informative way to spend an hour or two.
Vikings in Ireland
Andrew Dzurisin IIIReally cool historic exhibit about the Viking influence in Ireland. Great for history nerds like me but not so sure most teenagers especially American teens would appreciate it. Best to do in combination with Christchurch Cathedral.
