The An Post Museum is a Dublin museum housed in the General Post Office on O’Connell Street. Open since 2010, this small museum presents the history of the Irish post office and its impact on Irish society over several generations.
The An Post Museum offers a rather interesting exhibition on the history of An Post (the Irish Post Office). In this context, he offers a quick overview of the creation of the Irish Post Office, its logistics in the early days throughout the country, and the creation of its stamps. You’ll also learn all about the GPO (Dublin General Post Office), which was one of the first buildings to bear the full brunt of the Easter Rising of 1916.
The museum features video documentaries, a copy of the 1916 Proclamation calling for the creation of an autonomous Irish Republic, and a host of old stamps. You’ll know everything there is to know about Irish philately and stamp design!
And don’t miss the various staff testimonials, presented in a standard format specially modified for the museum. Here you’ll discover the experiences of employees in the early 1900s!
A pretty cool museum, well worth a visit if you want to wander down O’Connell Street and pop into the Post Office to send a few postcards!
