Dublin, County Dublin
Admission - 3 Euros
November 2010 & September 2015
We were pointed to Marsh's Library from a trip by a local and it is a gem indeed. By far my favorite stop in Dublin and perhaps the best 3 Euros you'll spend on your trip.
Opened in 1703, it is Ireland's oldest public library. You can sit at desks where James Joyce or Bram Stoker read.
Back in the day, books were so expensive, that readers had to be locked in cages to make sure that they didn't steal them. The iron bars are still there today.
