Ireland’s first wax museum was set up in 1804 by the famous Madame Tussaud and has had many reincarnations. It has moved from its original location in Shakespeare’s Gallery in Exchequer Street in 1804 to The Armoury building on College Green home to the former Central Bank of Ireland to O’Connell bridge where it remains today at the epicenter of the city. This unique wax museum features a captivating collection of lifelike wax figures, interactive exhibits, and immersive experiences. Visitors can enjoy a fun and educational journey through Irish history, cultural heritage, and modern pop culture.
