Wilder Townhouse

Ireland’s premier museum traces Irish history to 7000BC, via bog bodies, castles and Celtic art.

You’ll find everything from works by Van Gogh to contemporary portraits in this sprawling gallery, that’s an architectural masterpiece itself.

Award-winning walk-through Dublin via historic pubs, combining drinks and entertainment, with literature and history.

Birthplace of Oscar Wilde, and originally built in 1592, Trinity College is Dublin’s hallowed seat of learning, and home to the world-famous Book of Kells.

Known locally as ‘the wedding cake’ this architecturally interesting Shopping Centre looks like a traditional paddle-steamer from the outside, with glass and ornate white iron work used throughout to create a historic look (in spite of it being built in the 1980s).

Dublin’s equivalent of Fortnum & Mason, this elegant department store first opened its doors in 1849 and remains the city’s go-to place for designer brands.

A chic mix of speciality shops, art galleries and restaurants housed in an atmospheric, 18th-century Georgian mansion that retains many of its period features. Centrally located, just off Grafton Street.

This atmospheric library dates back to 1707 and has barely changed in the last 300 years – the mahogany shelves groan with books. A bibliophile’s paradise.

Medieval history, literature, art and culture marry epic nightlife and dining in a charming urban village.
