The National Leprechaun Museum

The National Leprechaun Museum is the first museum dedicated to Irish mythology and folklore. This is a fascinating, magical world full of folklore, myth, and legend. Using the power of stories we help visitors form near and far to explore the unique imagination of Ireland. We've been telling stories in Ireland for a very long time. At the museum we have a place where we can share these stories. Our storytellers have tales to delight, stories to shock and legends to inspire. Each tour is unique and your visit is truly yours. Here there are no buttons to press, or screens to touch. There are devices to get in the way. Just you me and a good story in a place made for magic. Based in the heart of Dublin, the museum takes you deep into Irish culture to discover what really lies behind the well-known tales of Ireland. Whatever you're after, we have a story. Ireland has one of the richest literary traditions in the world. But you don’t have to write things down to tell a story or breathe life into an idea. Stories have been around for a lot longer than books or papers. In the past it was the way we learned about the world, a good storyteller stretched our imaginations and took us places we could only dream of.
