Rathfarnham Castle and Toy Collection

The Berkeley Costume and Toy Collection housed within Rathfarnham Castle is an exquisite collection of 18th and 19th century toys, dolls and costumes. Displayed in the elegant rooms of Rathfarnham Castle and covering a period of some 80 years from 1740 – 1820, the exhibits range from rare and delicate artefacts to simple and robust playthings, and everyday garments of the past many of which were once owned by Irish families. Fascinating for all ages. There is also an adventure playground located in the grounds.
