On this self-guided walking tour, you'll explore Dublin's beating heart, where rebels fought for Irish freedom. Dublin’s thriving centre isn’t just the focal point of life for many locals today. Some of the most important events in Irish history have unfolded along these inner city streets. On this walking tour, you’ll see some of the country’s most important national monuments and learn how the Irish nation was created. You’ll cross the River Liffey and head to the capital’s main artery, O’Connell Street. Here, you’ll find out why this landmark was named after Daniel O’Connell and why Martin Luther King and Gandhi looked up to him. Then make your way into the beating heart of the city, to the streets that Irish rebels fought and died on. I’ll show you where the last failed rebellion in Ireland against British rule, the 1916 Easter Rising, took place. You’ll find out exactly why the Irish people wanted to create their own nation and how they did so.

About Dublin

Dublin is Ierlands vriendelijke, literaire hoofdstad aan de Liffey, met Georgiaanse pleinen, historische pubs, livemuziek en een talent voor verhalen.

Trinity College bewaart het verluchte Book of Kells en de torenhoge bibliotheek Long Room, terwijl Dublin Castle, Christ Church Cathedral en St Patrick's Cathedral het middeleeuwse en koloniale verleden van de stad schetsen. Georgiaanse pleinen als Merrion Square, met hun felgekleurde deuren, en de groene ruimte van St Stephen's Green zorgen voor elegante rust.
