LOCAL ATTRACTIONS #12: EPIC THE IRISH EMIGRATION MUSEUM

EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum is an award-wining experience located in the beautiful CHQ building in Dublin’s Docklands. Its location is key, being the original departure point for so many of Ireland’s emigrants over the centuries. EPIC brings you on a journey through Irish history, with a fully interactive tour telling the story of the people who have left the island and how they spread across the globe over the last few centuries.

EPIC connects the 70 million people around the world today of Irish descent, telling stories through the use of state-of-the-art technology to create a powerful and emotional experience. The museum captures an authentic picture of the history and culture of Ireland and explains how future generations of Irish emigrants influenced and shaped the world.

Visiting EPIC is a must for all guests and tourists to Dublin, especially those of an Irish ancestry or those with a keen interest in history and culture. Audio guides are available in English, Irish, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Polish and Mandarin Chinese.
