The exhibit on Sikhs in Ireland was kind of weird. I was left with the impression that the artist went and interviewed all 50 Sikhs who live there. Is Dublin really that white? I don't think so, but maybe it is? more

We found the exhibition on religions very interesting and extremely well made. Well done! more

A must see while in Dublin. Very informative, wonderful displays. Very interesting. more

Lonely Planet called it the best museum in Ireland. It was free, I went. Mostly everyother museum is more heavy on teaching/explanations of irish history than artifiacts, and this museum is all artifacts. Some really neat stuff.

I've been to many museums, but the collection here is incredible. Pages of the Bible from 150 AD? Hard to fathom just how OLD that really is.

I can't say enough good things about the Chester Beatty Library. I had expected it to be a sort of "filler" place to visit in between St. Patrick's Cathedral and Dublin Castle. Wow - was I wrong! We spent almost an hour and a half, and still only saw the first floor. I could have stayed there all day. My... more

This was the highlight of our trip to Dublin. The love and care that went into the presentation of the exhibits are a testament to the great passion that the late Chester Beatty clearly had for books. We were so impressed with the clarity of the glass casing that housed the exhibits...they were literally invisible, enhancing the pleasure of viewing... more
