Om
Raske fakta: Gå inn under hvelvede lys og en stillhet av polert tre, og du vil finne sider så tett opplyst at de glitrer som små glassmalerier. Forskere har telt over 3 000 dyre-, menneske- og mytiske figurer gjemt i margene, som avslører en leken, uventet moderne sans for humor.
Høydepunkter: Trå inn i en 65 meter lang, tønnehvelvet bibliotekshall og det første inntrykket er en varm lukt av honnetre, rader med cirka 200 000 innbundne skinnvolumer og et glassmonter som holder en 1300-talls gaelisk harpe som ruver som en gammel historieforteller. En håndskrevet evangeliebok fra rundt år 800 åpner seg på den fargerike Chi Rho-siden, hvor rødt og grønt flettes sammen med små dyreansikter i margene, og en konservator fortalte meg en gang at noen pigmenter er så skjøre at du kan se individuelle penselhår under et forstørrelsesglass.
Insidertips
- Bring a small bag only, large backpacks may need to be checked or left at the cloakroom.
- Flash photography is prohibited in the exhibition, and photos are often restricted at the Book of Kells display, so plan to take pictures in the Long Room.
- Wear comfortable shoes, the visit includes narrow aisles and stairs between levels.
- Buy timed tickets online to skip the admission queue, or arrive 10–15 minutes before opening for a quieter experience.
