National Museum of Ireland
The National Museum is the place to see the treasures of ancient
Ireland - it is a policy to gather all important artefacts in this
one museum. Included in this selection is jewellery dating back to
the 8th century BC and medieval antiquities such as the Tara Brooch
and the Ardagh Chalice. Also housed here is the 12th-century Cross
of Cong, an ornate reliquary of wood, bronze and silver, said to
contain a fragment of the True Cross. The museum showcases
important exhibitions on Irish history including Prehistoric
Ireland, Viking Ireland and The Road to Independence
(1900-1921).
