Despre activitate

Follow an expert guide through the heart of Dublin, tracing the 1916 Easter Rising while uncovering the fascinating Kilmainham Gaol history, one of Ireland's most important landmarks in the story of Irish independence.

This Dublin walking tour follows the rebellion in chronological order, revealing the vital role of Kilmainham Gaol, where Patrick Pearse and James Connolly were imprisoned before their executions, events that transformed public opinion and accelerated Ireland's fight for freedom.

The tour ends at the iconic General Post Office (GPO), headquarters of the Rising, with included admission to the award-winning GPO Witness History Museum, where immersive exhibits bring this defining chapter of Dublin history to life, including that of Kilmainham Gaol.
