The museum closed its doors in 2022, after initially shutting down during the COVID-19 pandemic. A combination of factors seems to have contributed, including staffing issues and an assessment suggesting the museum was no longer meeting the expectations of modern visitors. Note: This fascinating museum celebrates the rich literary heritage of Ireland, showcasing the lives and works of greats like Joyce, Yeats, and Beckett but to be honest I found it to be uninteresting mainly because of the way it was organised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-82fc2cf880e8a903aa5a0d0143191aa0\">While the museum itself is closed, F\u00e1ilte Ireland, the organisation that owned and operated it, still possesses the artefacts. There&#8217;s hope these might be displayed again in another venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-d5f2b91e8b29d4106e7067edfb8f2b8a\">It seems information about its closure hasn&#8217;t been widely updated online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parnell Square is one of Dublin&#8217;s finest examples of Georgian architecture. The elegant townhouses lining the square transport you back to the city&#8217;s prosperous 18th-century era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rotunda Rink, where the Irish Volunteers were founded in 1913, was located on the square. This makes it a symbolic site pivotal to Ireland&#8217;s fight for independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Garden of Remembrance, located at the north end of the square, honours those who died in pursuit of Irish freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hugh Lane Gallery gallery houses a renowned collection of modern and contemporary art, featuring both Irish and international artists. It boasts a reconstructed studio of the famed artist Francis Bacon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The iconic Gate theatre plays a significant role in the Dublin arts scene, staging Irish and international productions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chapter One is a Michelin-starred restaurant located beside the Dublin Writers Museum [now closed], perfect for special occasions and fine dining experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parnell Square is within walking distance of O&#8217;Connell Street (Dublin&#8217;s main thoroughfare), the Spire, and the GPO (General Post Office \u2013 a pivotal location in the 1916 Easter Rising).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many bus routes pass through Parnell Square, and it&#8217;s close to the Luas tram lines, making it simple to access from other areas of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-background
