Located in the heart of the legendary St. James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin, this production site has been home to the Guinness Brewery since 1759, when Arthur Guinness signed a lease for 9,000 years. The Guinness Storehouse building dates back to 1904 and is built in the style of the Chicago School of Architecture. It was once the fermentation plant of the brewery and is now re-modelled into a visitor centre, dedicated to the history of Guinness.
Guinness Storehouse is where you can trace the story of an icon from its beginnings until the present day. It’s here you’ll experience every aspect of a brewing process that’s as old and unique as the cobbled streets outside.
Ireland’s number one attraction unfolds its tale across seven floors shaped around a giant pint, which, if filled would contain 14.3 million pints of Guinness. The highlight for many visitors is the Gravity Bar, symbolically the ‘Head of the Pint”, where visitors can enjoy unparalleled panoramic views of Dublin city – views that are all the better with a complimentary pint in hand. |
