The history of Glasnevin Cemetery is told in wonderful, award-winning detail in this museum, which tells the social and political story of Ireland through the lives of the people, known and unknown, that are buried in the cemetery. The City of the Dead covers the burial practice and religious beliefs of the roughly 1½ million people whose final resting place this is, while the Milestone Gallery features a 10m-long digitally interactive timeline outlining the lives of the cemetery's most famous residents.
