Full description

St Patrick's is Ireland's national cathedral for the Church of Ireland, built in the 13th century and still hosting regular musical recitals. Visitors pay an admission fee at the entrance, with reduced rates for some groups, and reviewers point to the stained-glass windows, high ceilings and well-kept historic details.

About 45 minutes covers the main interior comfortably. It sits within easy walking distance of other medieval sights in the Liberties and old city.

It suits first-time visitors wanting architecture and history in one central stop.
