Nightmare On Werburgh Street
This historic building, in the shadow of Dublin Castle, has a long and illustrious history….a hidden gem. As in much of Dublin, there is so much more than meets the eye. If you look carefully, you will see that the second story does not seem to match…and there is a good reason for that. It was originally a much taller building…destroyed in the fire of 1754, the steeple removed in 1810…the tower removed in 1836. What we see now is is shadow of what it once was. There is much to be learned from reading further……please do.

Royal Hospital – Kilmainham, Dublin
Built in 1684 as a home for retired soldiers, the Royal Hospital at Kilmainham was the first major public building to be constructed in Dublin. The design, by Sir William Robinson, was based on Les Invalides in Paris.
