Pause at Dublin City Hall, a neoclassical civic landmark beside Dublin Castle. Step into the domed rotunda and explore the exhibition on the city's history.
Full description
Dublin City Hall is a neoclassical civic building built between 1769 and 1779, standing close to Dublin Castle in the heart of the city. Its circular rotunda is the centrepiece, and a multimedia exhibition in the building tells the story of the city.
Reviewers highlight the elegant, light-filled interior and its popularity as a place to photograph. It remains the headquarters of Dublin City Council, so access follows office-style opening hours, and the building is closed on Saturdays.
A visit takes about 30 minutes and involves little walking.
