Over 1,000 objects from all over the world cover 1,700 square metres of Collins Barracks as the Soldiers and Chiefs exhibition traces Ireland's military history from 1550 into the 21st Century.
Broken down into three themes, Soldiers and Chiefs looks at Irish soldiers at home, Irish soldiers abroad, and Irish soldiers in the 21st Century.
We regret that some of our Military History galleries at the National Museum of Ireland - Decorative Arts & History, Collins Barracks, Dublin 7, are temporarily closed for repairs
Our current restoration work means the first floor of our museum is closed. This limits our capacity so visitors should be prepared to wait in line outside for up to 1 hour
