    Tips

    Formerly a wooden church built by the Vikings, it is now difficult to trace which parts of the cathedral are from which period. The building structure gradually deteriorated and so the Christ Church Cathedral had to be extensively renovated. Even though the cathedral is quite a bit smaller than St. Patrick's Cathedral, there is a lot to see here. This includes the tomb of Richard De Clare, also known as Strongbow. The real tomb was destroyed a long time ago, so there is only a "replacement tomb" here. There is also a crypt here, which is the largest in an Irish and English cathedral. Here lie historical treasures and works of art.

      On the corner of Lord Edward Street is the Christ Church Cathedrale, which is the Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity, the older of the city's two medieval cathedrals (the other is St. Patrick's Cathedral). Here is the seat of the Dublin archbishops.

        Imposing church in the middle of Dublin. A visit from the inside costs entrance.
