Overview
Discover the history and heritage of Ireland's printing press through the National Print Museum's extensive collection of historical prints, machinery and photography. With your pass, you can take a guided tour of the museum and learn how printing has evolved over the centuries. This fun, factual and interactive tour also gives you the chance to compose your name in print and print your own souvenir poster to take home!
As well as a huge collection of printing blocks, books, pamphlets, and periodicals, the museum is also home to a rare original copy of the famous 1916 Proclamation. This important document announced Ireland's independence from the United Kingdom during the Easter Rising and is undoubtedly one of the most important pieces of print in Ireland's history.
After the tour, you can also check out the museum's temporary exhibition. Past displays include deep dives into literature, important historical milestones and political prints. You can check out what's on now on the National Print Museum's website.
