James Joyce Centre, Literary museum in North Great George's Street, Dublin, Ireland
The James Joyce Centre occupies a restored Georgian townhouse containing exhibitions about the author's life, manuscripts, letters, and personal belongings.
The building, constructed in 1784 for Valentine Brown, the Earl of Kenmare, was saved from demolition in 1982 by Senator David Norris.
The Centre maintains permanent exhibits featuring Joyce's manuscripts, letters, and personal items, while organizing literature events and educational programs throughout the year.
The Centre provides guided walking tours every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, allowing visitors to explore locations that influenced Joyce's literary works.
The courtyard displays the original door from 7 Eccles Street, which appears in Ulysses as the residence of Leopold and Molly Bloom.
