## Parking at Kilmainham Gaol and the Royal Hospital Kilmainham

Kilmainham Gaol has no car parking facilities. The museum directs drivers to the nearby Irish Museum of Modern Art and Royal Hospital Kilmainham car park, with access through the East Gate (Kilmainham Gaol Museum). This is the recommended parking location for visiting the site in Kilmainham B ED, near Inchicore, on Inchicore Road.

The site is visited by guided tour only, and the museum advises allowing approximately 90 minutes for a visit (Kilmainham Gaol Museum).

## Royal Hospital Kilmainham and Other Nearby Parking Choices

The Irish Museum of Modern Art and Royal Hospital Kilmainham car park is the named nearby alternative for visitors, reached via the East Gate (Kilmainham Gaol Museum). It is separate from the museum itself, which has no car parking facilities, and is the clearest official option for reaching the guided tour on foot.

Drivers looking for a straightforward arrival should therefore use the East Gate access identified by the museum rather than treating the museum entrance as a parking entrance.
