The Jame Joyce Centre is located on North Great George's Street in the North Georgian Quarter and was built in the late 18th century. While Joyce himself never lived in this establishment he was connected to it through the Dance School that was run by Prof. Dennis Maginni, a character who appeared several times in Joyce's novel Ulysses. Joyce's family lived in a house not dissimilar to this Georgian building and it contains all of Joyce's addresses, an interactive tour of Joyce's Ulysses, Joyce's death mask and a range of documentaries and artefacts from Ulysses that will satisfy any diehard fans needs.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Dublin Local Expert
- Museums: "The Joyce centre runs a series of special events surrounding many of Joyce's other works so if you're less of a Leopold Bloom fan and want a different slant on his work then perhaps check to see if one of these events might suit you."
