Frommer's Review

In the old City Assembly House, a fine 18th-century Georgian structure next to the Powerscourt Townhouse Centre, this museum focuses on the history of the Dublin area from medieval to modern times. In addition to old street signs, maps, and prints, you can see Viking artifacts, wooden water mains, coal covers -- and even the head from the statue of Lord Nelson, which stood in O'Connell Street until it was blown up by the IRA in 1966.
