Description
The Jeanie Johnston is a full-scale replica of a 19th-century famine ship located in Dublin’s Docklands. The vessel tells the story of some of the thousands of Irish people who fled the Great Famine and made the dangerous Atlantic crossing in search of a better life in North America. Visitors can step aboard to learn about the cramped conditions, the voyage’s risks, and the resilience of the passengers who undertook this journey into the unknown.
