Meet the legends of Irish folklore at the National Leprechaun Museum in Dublin's North City. A storyteller guides you through themed rooms, spinning tales of leprechauns, fairies and other mythical characters that keep kids and adults equally hooked.
Full description
The National Leprechaun Museum in North City is built around guided storytelling rather than a traditional exhibition. Visitors move through themed spaces while a storyteller recounts Irish mythology and legends, from leprechauns to fairies and other folkloric characters.
Reviewers repeatedly highlight the guides' animated delivery and say children of different ages were absorbed by the tales, while adult visitors enjoyed it just as much. The visit lasts about an hour and suits families and anyone after something offbeat.
It opens later on Saturdays than on weekdays, which helps when planning an early-evening slot.

My bf and I absolutely loved our experience. I can't remember the storytellers name, I think it may have been D? But she was amazing and so animated. Highly recommend ☘️😊
