Dublin Things to Do Tips by ATXtraveler

Earliest reports show that this Cathedral was built in 1030 by Dunan, the first bishop of Dublin. It was originally founded as a Viking church, and was a subject of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Throughout the years, documents show that it was changed to an Irish Church. In the 1600's King James attended mass here, and has been renovated several times since.

The church is open from 9:45 to 4:30 every day, and on Sundays, no groups are allowed until after 12:45.

Finished in 1802 after 20 years of building, the Four Courts building is the current home of the Supreme Court of Ireland, and is rich in history.

The British troops fired on this building in 1916, and Michael Collins shelled the building in 1922. The building was then set on fire destroying tons of historical documents. It was restored in 1932 and contains a wonderful law library as well.
