Is EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum worth it for history buffs?

Worth itFor history

For history & culture, EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum delivers.

A modern, gallery-by-gallery interactive experience that's genuinely well-designed and repeatedly voted Europe's leading tourist attraction. The honest catch: there are no real artifacts — it's all screens and projections — and at full price some find it style over substance, especially if they expected a traditional museum.
