Editor's note
What this site does
A small Dublin literary museum that keeps “open now or not, and when next” on screen, and gives directions by bus route and train station.

What you see
The tower at sunset with two large lines: "Ours is the Omphalos" and "It all begins with us". In the bottom-left corner a card reads "The museum is currently closed. Next opening: Thursday 10:00–16:00", and it stays there as you scroll.
The home page moves through a slider of Joyce's belongings, the story of Joyce and the tower, events, group tour booking and visitor information. The visit page says admission is free and walk-ins are welcome, that it is closed on Mondays and open 10:00–16:00 Tuesday to Sunday, and explains how to arrive by bus 59 or 111 and from two DART stations. It also says plainly that the tower is not wheelchair accessible. The support page offers a €25 yearly membership alongside one-off donations.
What to take from it
For a place with limited opening hours, the first question is "can I go today". Answering it on every page avoids a wasted trip.
Directions written route by route, stop by stop, and an honest note about access are what a first-time visitor actually needs. Putting membership and donations side by side lets supporters choose how to help a volunteer-run museum.
