is home to a significant collection of paintings, furnishings
and objets d’art. Highlights include three 18th-century
Murano-glass chandeliers and the only fully intact eighteenthcentury
print room in the country. It is still the most splendid
Palladian-style country house in Ireland.
DUBLIN CASTLE
Just a short walk from Trinity College, on the way to
Christchurch Cathedral, Dublin Castle is well situated for
visiting on foot. The history of this city-centre site stretches
back to the Viking Age and the castle itself was built in the
thirteenth century. The building served as a military fortress,
a prison, a treasury and courts of law. For 700 years, from
1204 until independence, it was the seat of English (and then
British) rule in Ireland. Rebuilt as the castle we now know in
the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th centuries, Dublin Castle is now
a government complex and an arena of state ceremony. The
state apartments, undercroft, chapel royal, heritage centre
and restaurant are open to visitors.
