General Post Office, Dublin: 30 reviews and 31 photos

  Looking up at the GPO
by kentishgirl
 
 

The GPO is one of the main symbols from the 1916 Easter Rising, it is worth seeing....a beautiful building right in the middle of O Connell Street. You will often see protestors outside here or just across the street petitioning for different things (usually abortion).

The GPO was built back in 1818 and inside there is a huge important sculpture.

It is still today used as a post office, you can buy stamps, post letters, use the telephone etc etc in here......Oh and the staff are great!! ( my sister in law works here behind the scenes!!)

Address: O'Connell Street
