The National Wax Museum Plus Visit. Explore. Experience

The National Wax Museum has three floors of discovery, interaction and exhibition. You enter through the gift shop where you can buy unique wax based gifts for your family. The Museum experience begins in the Science World. Step through the Mirror maze and you will reach the Hall of Fame. Beyond that is the beautiful writers room with an astounding view of Dublin. There you can salute to the literary legacy of our nation’s greatest writers. You then  reach the Father Ted Room before stepping through the Narnia like wardrobe into the Wax world.

Children can explore a tunnel of four worlds and meet the Simpsons and Harry Potter or chill out on the nimbus 3000.

Then descend in to the basement for a journey through the vaults of Irish history from the Vikings right up to the Good Friday Agreement  it is a wonderful experience of sight and sound. Further down into the murky basement of the museum visitors can bravely enter at their own risk and experience the weird and wonderful world of the Chambers of Horrors, all those of a nervous disposition are warned to keep out!

You then move from the basement into the neon bright Enchanted Forest featuring mythical Irish figures such as Queen Meadhbh and Cu Chulainn.
