We absolutely loved our visit to the museum. It’s quite small but there is so much to look at. We liked that it’s independently owned and run and therefore, more than happy to pay the admission fee. It’s entertaining, slightly creepy, a few “omg”moments too. Recommend eating at Eathos for breakfast and brunch beforehand too. It’s a few minutes walk.
Very good service and good stuff
me and my sister came here and absolutely loved it, not just the fascinating objects and displays but the lovely lady on the desk was amazing. she was so helpful and friendly. i would highly recommend coming here if you are in the area ! so worth the money and i will be thinking of glamorous badger for the rest of my life.
A great experience with a lot of interesting artifacts! The owner was really nice I strongly recommend this museum!
I loved it!! It satisfied my curiosity for weed/dark things!!
Really unique experience, extremely cool!
If you’re looking for something different to do in Dublin, this is the place! It overachieved my expectations, the people are great, sooo many interesting objects and the facts behind it really feed into my curiosity. Thank you for a great time!
This is such a fun & intriguing experience. The place is absolutely packed full of oddities. From medical posters & models to taxidermy & weird toys. It's chock-full of the bizarre & outright creepy. Feels like being in a sideshow alley C 1880. We had a great time. A welcome reprieve from the heavy, accademia exhibits we attended the day prior.
Incredible. I have no other words. Paul is an experienced and very interesting collector, and his collection is wonderful.
We've given this site a "4", but it will be a "5" for many visitors and some will be completely lost. The Museum of Curiousities has been open for just over a year. It is a collection of oddities acquired over the course of years that the collector finally housed here. The museum is well named as it is indeed full of curiousities. The museum itself is fairly compact - three rooms, but all are packed with ununusual objects. If you like 2-headed cows, "Fiji mermaids", odd dolls, strange taxidermy, clown dolls gone wrong, etc. you will love this place. If not, it may not be for you. We were here for a little over an hour and took lots of pictures to send home. The museum is just a few blocks from sites such as Trinity College or the Irish Gallery of Art. We found it to be a lot of fun. Kids should love it.
