Really informative and interactive museum. Mid teen kids enjoyed finding out more about independence in Ireland and listening to the audio tour (free to download as soon as you get into the museum). They especially liked the quotes on the walls. Excellent place for a rainy day.

This is well worth a visit, if you are at all interested in Irish history, particularly the War of Independance and the Civil War. Dont confuse it with the Michael Collins Centre outside of Clon, run by a distant relative of 'The Big Fella.' I was unable to visit the latter place because it has restricted opening hours, but would have done both places if my holiday had been later in the year. The Michael Collins House packs a lot in, and you get a full picture of the man himself. There arent many historical artefacts, but that is not surprising. A statue of Michael Collins lies outside in one corner of Emmet Square. I had a short but interesting conversation with the man on the reception desk. The subject was 'How would Ireland have developed differently, as a new State, if Michael Collins had lived.' Its a subject of legitimate discussion for everyone who loves Ireland, including me, an Englishman !

Very friendly staff and filled in some gaps in my full knowledge of Irish history and politics. TBH I think it’s so sad how history taught in British schools whitewashes over Irish history. Great house , well worth a visit

This is a wonderful museum. Very interesting exhibits, loads to see, great information and history. Easy to move through and see everything especially when traveling with someone with mobility issues - much appreciated. The staff was extremely helpful, kind and very funny! The staff alone were a highlight of our visit.
