Minister of State for Nature, Heritage and Biodiversity, Christopher O’Sullivan TD, today opened the Shipwrecks of Dublin Bay exhibition in the Dublin Port Substation. This exhibition is a partnership between Dublin Port and the National Monuments Service highlighting over 900 known wrecks that sit out in Dublin Bay. 

Minister O’Sullivan commented, “Dublin Bay has a rich maritime history and with that comes stories of loss, hardship and heroism. This exhibition shines a light on some of the 900 known wrecks in the Bay and the stories that surround them. I congratulate Dublin Port and the National Monuments Service on this impressive historical collaboration and encourage people to pay the exhibition a visit.” 

The exhibition runs from 18 June – 18 September 2026 in the Dublin Port Substation on East Wall Road and is free for the public, open Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 11am - 3pm. It forms part of the Port’s summer events programme for 2026 aiming to foster better Port-City integration and highlight the deep historical connections between the Port and Dublin City.
