A total pinch me moment of my life! Going into the Old Library at Trinity College BEFORE IT OPENED! 📚📖✨ I almost started crying, we’ve visited The Old Library twice before this… but this was downright magical. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful libraries in the world! And it has been a working library since 1732! This is the famous Long Room which and is home to over 200,000 ancient books… BUT you might notice the books aren’t on the shelves right now and that’s because we’re witnessing a moment in history - the books are being cared for as part of a huge restoration process expected to be completed at the end of 2025. Things to know before your visit ⤵️ 🎟 Adult tickets are €21.50 each 📖 Your ticket includes access to the Old Library + the brand new Book of Kells experience! 📲 Book online in advance. Getting tickets is fairly easy but make sure to check a few days before to avoid disappointment 📚It’s open 7 days a week, which is very helpful! 📍Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland Have you been here before?!
