Ho voluto visitare il museo archeologico principalmente per vedere le mummie di palude di cui avevo sentito parlare durante una visita guidata a Dublino. Tutto il museo, ad ingresso gratuito, è interessante ed è più grande di quello sembra rispetto alla cartina che viene fornita all'ingresso. Le mummie sono nella sala finale, proprio prima dell'uscita. Molto belli i monili preistorici in oro e la metallurgia celtica e vichinga.

Bellissimo, il biglietto era gratuito (penso lo sia sempre, ma meglio informarsi) continente veramente tanti tanti reperti, dall'età della pietra, al medioevo, fino ai nostri giorni. Poi ha anche una parte per la storia vichinga in Irlanda e anche una parte sugli egizi (che non c'entra molto) ma bella da vedere. Consigliatissimo
