National Leprechaun Museum, Interactive folklore museum in Dublin, Ireland
The National Leprechaun Museum features several themed rooms, including a tunnel with optical illusions and a chamber with oversized furniture for immersive experiences.
The museum opened its doors on March 10, 2010, after Tom O'Rahilly spent seven years developing the concept with Italian designers Elena Micheli and Walter Scipioni.
Through guided tours, visitors learn about Irish mythology, encountering stories of fairies, banshees, and púcas within carefully designed exhibition spaces.
The museum welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 to 18:30, with full wheelchair accessibility throughout the facility and a gift shop on premises.
A wooden replica of the Giant's Causeway and rooms with altered proportions allow visitors to experience the perspective of mythological creatures.
