An excellent exhibit of Christian history! We were self guided through the library and Book of Kells exhibit. Hidden is a great basement coffee shop with Italian coffee and a place to freshen up and hide from the busy Dublin streets. A must see, but...More

Everyone wants to see the book of Kells, and it is fascinating, but you can only see a portion of it and the crowd is big. The library upstairs, however, is magnificent! The high ceiling, historic volumes and the busts of the literary greats took...More

We visited the Book of Kells and the long library in June. Very enjoyable visit. It gave a presentation of how the books were created. Really loved the long library. The room itself was amazing. I highly recommend visiting.
