james joyce centre

The James Joyce Centre is located on North Great George's Street, one of the city's finest remaining Georgian thoroughfares. The Centre is housed in a beautifully restored 18th century Georgian Townhouse and is located only about 300 metres from O'Connell Street.
The Centre aims to promote a greater interest in the life and works of Joyce and to do this it organises daily tours of the house and walks through the heartland of Joyce's north inner city. It has all the usual audiovisual trickery, a coffee shop and the novelty of being staffed by some of Joyce's relatives.
The aim of the Centre is to promote an interest in the life and works of James Joyce and the city that inspired him. The Centre includes: Guinness Reference Library, The Paul Leon Exhibition Room, Joyce Family Portraits, Ulysses Mural, The Original Door of No. 7 Eccles Street, Bookshop, Short Films on Joyce and his Dublin, Recordings of Joyce Reading from his works, Ornamental 18th Century Plasterwork.
