Luggage storageNational Gallery of Ireland

The National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin has roots in mid-19th-century civic collecting and philanthropy, and over the decades its halls have expanded to showcase a wide-ranging art collection. Located near Merrion Square, the gallery brings together important works of Irish art alongside European masters, reflecting centuries of artistic practice and Ireland’s cultural history.

Visitors come for the quality of the collections, rotating exhibitions, and educational programmes that make the gallery a key cultural hub in Ireland. With free admission to the permanent collection and regular special exhibitions, the gallery is practical for tourists and locals alike—an ideal indoor stop on a rainy day, a resource for students and art lovers, and a peaceful place to connect with Ireland’s artistic heritage.
