Welcome to the Irish Military Museum! Let us take you on a journey back in time – hold original artefacts in your hands, feel the weight of a rifle’s cold steel, experience the coarse warmth of a woollen uniform. Let the past become the present again, if only for a moment. A moment that may stay with you forever.

A visit to the Irish Military Museum is always a personal, hands-on experience, an engaging and immersive opportunity to learn about history – after all, what we call history today was our ancestors’ reality, their present, their daily life.

The permanent exhibition focuses on World War 1 and 2, but regular living history events and temporary exhibitions cover all eras from Roman to modern times.
