About this event

Come to the Museum and experience a Medieval Christmas with re-enactors and storytelling at the National Museum of Ireland!

As mid-winter draws near, roam through the galleries at the National Museum of Ireland - Archaeology to discover how people spent their time in winters past, the games they played, and how they kept themselves safe on long and dangerous pilgrimages.

Pick up our Medieval Christmas Trail and roam through the galleries to answer the questions, and on your way, meet with re-enactors from Laoch Living History. Discover a pilgrim on a journey, a monk and his writings, a games master with ancient games, and, if you are not feeling too well, make sure you go to the barber-surgeon for your ailments! In our Learning Resource Room, meet with Museum Educators and make your own Christmas tree decoration to take home with you.

No booking is required.
