The Best in Heritage

European Museum Forum / Kenneth Hudson Award 2012 winner

The Museum is located in Glasnevin Cemetery, the largest cemetery in Ireland which is run by Glasnevin Trust, a charitable body founded in the early 19th century by Daniel O’Connell during the struggle for Catholic emancipation. The museum tells the story of the Cemetery, with “City of the Dead” which explains how the cemetery works; an interactive themed exhibition, currently on Daniel O’Connell; an interactive “Time line” which cleverly allows the user to discover the lives of 250 of our most significant people and the Prospect Gallery, an area which indicates the important architecture and stonemasonry of the cemetery.

Presentation is taking place on 21st September, 10.45 - 11.10
