The Jeanie Johnston is a tall ship and famine ship that was docked in Ireland during the Irish famine. It made 16 successful voyages from the Emerald Isle to North America between 1848 and 1855 with – quite impressively – not one life lost.

Today, an exact replica of the Jeanie Johnston sits in Dublin on the Liffey River in the heart of the capital. It’s open as a living history museum to tourists and Irish nationals keen to gain further insight into Irish history seldom forgotten.
