  The videos put into perspective what it felt like to be living back in the time of the tenements. The tour guide was excellent and knew so much about the building which made the tour very interesting too

  Still under construction but looks like a good representation of living in a tenement

  Came here to see Hentown by Anu Productions. Incredible. Highly recommended. Due to open in November 2017.

  At the time of writing this review the museum is closed to the public because of ongoing construction work but I have awarded four stars based on my visit earlier in the year but I do expect to be able to increase the rating to five stars after my next visit. I expect that this will become a major visitor attraction in the not too distant future. To give you some context it should be noted In the early 1900s over 25,000 people were living in Dublin’s tenements. The Census records of 1901 and 1911 record 17 families totalling 100 people living in no.14. The population of Henrietta Street peaked at over 850 men, women and children and did not reduce until the late 20th century when families moved to the outer city suburbs. The last residents left no. 14 in 1979 and the street during the 1980s. I can see the back of No. 14 Henrietta Street from my bedroom window and I was delighted to learn that the building is now in the ownership of Dublin City Council and is currently undergoing a massive refurbishment as part of the Dublin Tenement Museum Project. The Project will see No. 14 re-open as a full-time Museum in early 2017. The main focus of the Museum will reflect tenement life in Dublin’s inner city which continued until the 1970s. The City Council are seeking the public’s help to collect information on the material culture of tenement life and associated stories that will help inform the museum we are developing at No.14.
