Your journey will all depend on the day and time you are staying at the George Frederic Handle Hotel, however, let’s assume you are free during the day to have a walk about, and then Dublin Castle has to be a must on your journey. Dublin Castle was the seat of British colonialism in Ireland for centuries; however, we are grateful to have this Historical giant in our national heritage as it is now home to many national and international treasures including the Chester Beatty Library.
The Chester Beatty Library (entry FREE) is home to some of the most treasured literature in the world and is made up of the lifelong collection of Sir Chester Beatty, to walk through the Chester Beatty Library is to walk through time, cultures and traditions, now almost lost to time and memory. Dublin Castle has daily guided tours, in which participants will be given a clear and concise history of the role of Dublin Castle over the centuries.
Also housed within the walls of the grounds of Dublin Castle are the tranquil gardens that pay tribute and commemorate those members of our national police service (An Garda Siochana) who have fallen while serving our country. This beautifully landscaped garden also houses a monument to Irish Journalist Veronica Guerin who was murdered by drug dealers in 1996.
