Where Printing Comes to Life
At the National Print Museum, we invite you to participate in the collection. The museum is set up like a traditional print shop, with fully operational letterpress printing equipment that you can see in action.
History comes to life in an immersive, hands-on experience. From the moment you step inside, you’ll embark on a journey through time, connecting with the stories, ideas, and events that have shaped our world through the power of the printed word.
Exhibitions & Collection
Discover the Museum’s working collection of letterpress printing machinery and equipment, all representing Ireland’s centuries-old printing heritage. Rotating exhibitions explore the broader power of print and design and their impact on everyday life, from political pamphlets to bottle labels and theatre posters.
