📖

Full description

The Molly Malone Statue is a bronze figure of the fictional fishmonger who stars in a famous Irish song, standing in the centre of Dublin within sight of a cathedral. It is open and free at all hours, and flowers and planters now surround it to discourage visitors from touching it.

Reviewers call it a lively, iconic photo stop, though often crowded with people queuing for the same picture, and sometimes buskers sing nearby. A visit takes about 15 minutes.

Reviews

It's a nice monument located in a good area! You can see the cathedral and in the same time you might get the chance to see people singing (video attached). Nobody gro*ed her when I was there so I suggest don't do it...it's not okay
