Maybe it varies. Last time I was in Dublin, it cost 10e to see the book of kells, the Guiness tour was 20e, etc. Almost nothing was free in Dublin. Admittedly the national art gallery was free although there was a shakedown for "donations".
Yes I know Dublin isn't a suburb of London or whatever, but culturally its not that far away.
- theoh 11y agoIn London most major museums are free (with a "shakedown") and have been for about 15 or 20 years. Special exhibitions tend to be charged for. Ireland's economy and cultural sector is distinct from the UK's and much smaller. The Guinness Brewery and Book of Kells are really exceptional cases which cater to wealthy international tourists. They have little to do with local cultural life.
