glasnevin cemetery and Museum
The Glasnevin Trust who manages Glasnevin Cemetery and
Museum is a not-for-profit organisation and is both the
guardians and storytellers for over 1.5 million people. From
the ordinary to the truly extraordinary, these people helped
shape the Ireland of today. We want to share their stories and
times with you through tours of the cemetery, a visit to the
museum or through a genealogy search for your family history.
All proceeds are used to sustain and improve our cemeteries to
ensure they are places of beauty, interest and intrigue. Glasnevin
Museum has been the recipient of a number of prestigious
awards since opening in April 2010.
