Marsh’s Library

After being welcomed by our fantastic staff, wander through the galleries and take in the scent and surroundings of history. Have a seat in our Old Reading Room and share the experience of our famous readers: James Joyce, Bram Stoker and Jonathan Swift. Witness the books damaged by bullet fire during the 1916 Easter Rising. Don’t forget to check out the cages where readers were locked in to prevent book theft! You may peacefully self-guide but if you have any queries, staff are available throughout to provide you with information. Perhaps ask about our Egyptian mummy found in a cupboard, or if Marsh still roams the galleries! We also have a mini-figure hunt for young visitors (as well as the young at heart). Continue your visit with a browse through our gift shop if you wish to take home a souvenir. Finally, take a relaxing walk through our beautiful, private garden to end your trip to Marsh’s Library.
