From Joyce’s death mask to Bono’s sunglasses: a look around the Little Museum of Dublin’s grand curiosities | Dublin holidays

R.Below are some museums around the world that exceed their role in artifacts, and it seems that they work in one way or another as gates in the past. Frick Group in New York and Marcel Bruce, lined with the Fallin in Musée carvalet In both Paris, they are humiliating with immortal energy that exceeds the exhibits offered. Dublin Little Museum It is also such a space.

Within seconds of ascending to the stairs of this beautiful Georgian house of 15 stephen’s Green, a different era appears to be controlled. The modern world disappears and I imagine myself in Georgian times, when this red brick terrace was built with many beautiful squares and gardens throughout the city center.

Dubner Trefor White Dublin City Council was persuaded to lend this building in 2011 to open the first museum in the city dedicated to all things in Dublin. Armed with a wonderful idea or a group, move to the ether waves and ask my beloved listener Marianne Venocan Show on RTé (The national broadcaster in Ireland) roams through their tools and treasury for unique curiosity and effects related to the Irish capital.

More than 1,000 exhibitions were flooded, starting with a pair of famous sunglasses in Bono to a ticket for the only Dublin parties played by the Beatles team, in 1963. His dislocate was donated to James Joyce along with the first edition of Ulysses. A bottle of non -open lemon juice that was saved from the wreckage of the mail boat that was placed off Dublin was served during the First World War to display alongside a non -open jar from Sukarm from 1931 (the city was invented in the city). The notebook of the Professor’s book was discovered in the eighties of the nearby laundry (where unmarried pregnant women were forced to slavery) with listed agents, including the establishment of the president and government agencies. All elements were carefully organized according to their source and displayed throughout the high -ceiling rooms in the museum.

The museum has become immediate success with the local population, visitors and more than a million people who toured a 29 -minute guide in the exhibits over the past 14 years. Tripadvisor classifies him The third best attraction for visitors in Irelandand Best 12 in Europe.

I often find myself there, early on Sunday morning, when it opens very little in the city, sitting in the office of the Irish Editor’s editor, Times Berte Smily, on the upper floor with views of Stephen Al -Khadra to the Dublin Mountains. Berte Ghariba performed his bicycle course to the newspaper until 1954 with a balanced writer machine. He was responsible for defending many of the greatest Ireland writers, including Patrick Cavanag and so -and -so. In the vicinity, in the U2 room, I would like to choose the teenage embodiment of the band from the black and white class image in Mount Temple, the school where they first met as a student. This image, just like this museum as a whole, brings a feeling that it is still possible to reach the past.

With the outbreak of visitors, the museum sought funding to expand its exhibitions and shop in the basement and garden and install the long elevator to provide global access to all floors. After a year of renovations, at a cost of 4.3 million euros, the museum was reopened on June 5 with a new library and archive, a display room, and a new exhibition for women, the fearful of the stairs, and a braid of quotation by President Mary Robinson was taken: “I was elected by women in Iranda, and instead of formulating inverted cats.”

One of the finest dolls in the world has acquired the first floor. Like the Leinster House around the corner, the Irish government seat, Tara Palace took more than 20 years to build and was granted to the museum with a large number of new donations to celebrate the re -lock. President Mary sent the fees in the rosary beads. The original maquette of the singer Luke Kelly (from Dubliners) was found in Decklands perch; A full room of wild and wonderful animals with Dublin connection has acquired the residence.

In 1988, Dublin was distinguished by her founding clothes with a year of civil events. Many homes in the city are still proudly offered a famous milk bottle of this time, engraved with the coat of the city of Dublin, and you can find one of these on a shelf in the museum. After decades of negligence and internal engagement of the city, in 1988 it was a sea change in the number of Dubliners who saw their capital. Treenor White also tracks his passion for Dublin until this time. Everything he worked with in the Little Museum in Dublin, alongside his enthusiastic team, is equally designed to inspire continuous appreciation and Dublin’s love, the small city that can.
