MoLI - Museum of Literature Ireland: Entry Ticket

MoLI is an interactive cultural museum dedicated to celebrating Ireland's rich literary heritage. Located in the historic UCD Newman House, it offers multimedia exhibitions on Ireland's greatest poets, playwrights, and novelists, with a special focus on James Joyce.

The absolute crown jewel of the museum is 'Copy No. 1' of James Joyce's iconic novel, Ulysses. You will also experience the 'Riverrun of Language' immersive sound installation, explore beautiful historic rooms, and enjoy regularly updated temporary exhibitions.

Most visitors spend between 1 to 2 hours exploring the interactive exhibitions, reading the literary history, and relaxing in the museum's courtyard gardens.

This is a general admission ticket for a self-guided visit. However, during select months (October to March), a public guided tour is included in your ticket price. If you visit in the summer and prefer a guided experience, you can upgrade your ticket on-site for a small extra fee.
