the Pearse Museum at St Enda’s Park in Rathfarnham.
The Pearse Museum is located in a
former school run by the patriot Patrick Pearse. St. Enda's Park is one of Dublin’s most charming and atmospheric
parks, with its riverside walks, waterfall and walled garden. The Museum is a fascinating insight into
life at the turn of the 20th Century and includes an interesting nature studies
room.
