Full description
EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum, in North Wall, follows the journeys of the millions of Irish people who left their homeland and the mark they made abroad. The galleries are interactive and story-driven, with enough panels and personal accounts that some visitors spend well beyond the two hours typically allowed.
Reviewers report that it works for families, teenagers and adults, and the timed-entry system keeps visits organised. It is a thoughtful introduction to Irish history from the perspective of those who left.
