Museo Joyce

If you like see houses associated with famous writers, e.g. Joyce in Trieste, his wife Nora Barnacle in Galway, or Lawrence Durrell in Cyprus, go. When you get there it’s pretty meh..

A tiny little museum dedicated to Joyce and his close friend, Italian writer Svevo. The highlight was chatting with the docent, who is a native of Trieste who lives many years in the States. She was knowledgeable and friendly.

Nice "old school" museum about Joyce's stay in Triest.

Small museum with a few exhibits of documentary materials in two rooms (one dedicated to Svevo) within the municipal archives building. Care has gone into the display but probably only of interest to real Joyce fanatics.

Nice little museum in the heart of Trieste. Entrance is free. One room in the museum is dedicated to Italo Svevo, one room to James Joyce and two further rooms to Francesco Petrarca and Enea Silvio Piccolomini. It's nothing extraordinary, but the museum includes informative Videos and the staff gave me further information on the subjects, including a free little guided tour on Petrarca, which was very interesting and extraordinarily professional. Furthermore, the museum offers free leaflets with thematic city itineraries, for example with places important in the lives of Svevo or Joyce, or with the city's architectonic highlights. I recommend a visit...

A tiny museum with the simply told history of Joyce's relationship of a city he came to as a young man when it was still an Austrian port and left almost 20 years later when it was in Republica Italia. His family and major works were born here. Worth a visit.

Sadly, this was not a museum.
This place is more like an office, organizing the annual Bloomsday, and giving a lecture to the small audience.

I went all the way to trace James Joyce, but was terribly disappointed.

It is great to have a place like this to remember and honor Joyce, but please don't call it a museum. People get a wrong expectation.
