The Guinness Storehouse is a tourist attraction at St. James's Gate Brewery in Dublin, Ireland. Since opening in 2000, it has received over 20 million visitors. Adopted in 1862 by the incumbent proprietor, Benjamin Lee Guinness, the Guinness harp motif is modelled on the Trinity College harp (which is the national symbol of Ireland), with the right-facing harp registered as a trademark for Guinness in 1876.
