Guinness Storehouse Dublin

Not only is the Guinness Storehouse the most popular tourist attraction in Dublin, but also in the whole of Ireland. No wonder, it is, after all, about nothing less than the Irish national beverage: the palatable and fantastic Guinness beer! On seven floors, you have the chance to explore the fascinating home base of this world-renowned export success.

Construction of the Chicago style building was completed in 1904. Originally, the fermentation process took place here. It was shut in 1986 and remained so for more than a decade until the idea came up to restore the building and make an attraction out of it. After a long period of reconstruction, the Storehouse was finally opened as a museum in the year 2000.
