Founded in 1908, and regarded as the world's first known public gallery of modern art, this important collection is housed in a striking 18th Century house and named after its art connoisseur founder. The collection encompasses over 2,000 pieces from artists such as Manet, Monet, Degas and Renoir, and Irish artists including Jack B. Yeats and John Lavery. Uniquely, a reconstruction with original contents of Francis Bacon’s Reece Mews Studio is also on display. On Sun enjoy the sights to the sounds of classical music with concerts at noon.

Admission: Free to the permanent collection.
