Description:
Journey back in time and step aboard the Jeanie Johnston—a replica of an emigrant tall ship. Your guide provides the historical context of the mid-19th century, one of Ireland's most difficult times. Sample the tough conditions that emigrants endured to escape the ravages of famine.
Find the ship in its prime location, docked at Custom House Quay on the waters of the River Liffey. Climb aboard and listen as your knowledgeable guide describes the time of the Great Famine (1845–1849). Hear how the great tall ships of the time carried millions of Irish emigrants on the treacherous Atlantic to seek hope in the “New World.”
Experience the cramped living conditions below deck as hundreds were thrown together on their quest for survival. Admire the attention to detail in this impressive replica and marvel at the skill used to recreate this magnificent ship as you try to understand Ireland's desperate situation at that time.
