"The Book of Kells is a manuscript and Celtic Gospel book in Latin containing the four Gospels of the New Testament dating back to the 9th century. I'd say it's definitely worth a visit if you're into old books and the library is also beautiful and it's nice to walk through Trinity's campus. If not, you'll probably just think it's an old book."
