Dublin Civic Museum

Housed in a fine eighteenth century Georgian building, the Civic Museum collects and preserves material relating to Ireland's capital city and provides an understanding and knowledge of Dublin and its past through displays of historical items. The Museum, as part of Dublin City Council's heritage services, hosts a changing programme of exhibitions reflecting all aspects of Dublin life, and the visitor will gain a sense of the city's history through maps, pictures and street furniture. Some of the artifacts on display include original 18th century Malton Prints and the head from Nelson's Pillar, a famous Dublin landmark. http://www.houseofireland.com/dubguide/dcm.shtml
