Whether you’re a born-and-bred Dubliner, or want to retrace the footsteps of your ancestors, EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum is an inspirational day-out for visitors and locals alike.
Tucked away in the vaults of the historic CHQ Building in Dublin’s Docklands, EPIC museum continues to attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. As a previous winner of Europe’s Leading Tourist Attraction over three consecutive years, the museum has proved a major hit among people holidaying in Ireland – but, as Best Of Ireland discovered on a recent visit, EPIC has plenty to offer curious locals too…
Like most Irish people, we’re used to navigating comments about leprechauns, pots of gold, drunken brawls, and other ill-informed stereotypes. Thankfully, the high-tech, interactive exhibitions at EPIC offer a far more rounded and in-depth commentary on what it means – and has meant throughout history – to be Irish.
