Guided Tours:

Education at Dublinia, one of the top school attractions, involves the learning, research and sharing of information on Dublin City’s Viking, Medieval, and archaeological history. We have a wide range of learning facilities at Dublinia for all primary schools. Our authentically costumed guided tours are age and ability specific to ensure classes get an individually tailored educational experience based on teachers’ learning goals whilst also paying particular attention to areas relevant to the curriculum.

In the classroom:

We have many resources for teachers including Learning packs with pre and post visit worksheets, which are used to support learning by students in a multisensory and unique way. This encourages all students to engage with the exhibitions in Dublinia and gain both analytical and social skills.

We also have an Online Learning element to our website Click here for access, that can be accessed in the classroom on a free online platform. This brilliant website includes nine audio visual animations with interactive activities on nine historical sites in Dublin. This is an excellent primary school resource for the classroom environment with working on interactive whiteboards. With three sections on the Vikings, and five on the Anglo Normans, there are plenty of quizzes and hotspots to keep students entertained while learning!

Walking tours:

To start your visit, as Dublinia is situated right in the heart of the Viking and Medieval city, your class, along with an expert guide, will go on a walking tour of our beautiful city. From Ath Cliath to Dyflinn to Dubhlinn, we will explore the Viking and Medieval origins of the city on foot. Next you will continue your journey inside the Dublinia exhibition to explore further. There will also be curriculum based activity sheets for your class to complete.
