Overview

Who better to hear the storey of Ireland from than through the words of its greatest storytellers?

Located in one of Ireland's most important Georgian architectural sites, MoLI celebrates Ireland’s internationally renowned literary heritage past and present, inspiring visitors to create, read, and write.

MoLI is one of Dublin’s newest museums, featuring three floors of interactive exhibitions, ranging from original short-films to immersive soundscapes. View priceless heritage artefacts on display to the public for the first time. E.g. the original copy of James Joyce's Ulysses.

With revolving exhibitions across the year, every visit to MoLI tells a different storey, with expert tour guides on hand to bring visitors on an unforgettable journey through Irish cultural history.

Relax amid the museum's readers garden, a hidden oasis in the heart of Dublin city. The museum café, the Commons Restaurant, is run by one of Ireland's best-known chefs, Domini Kemp.
