Hiking

The sculptures of the great famine are very expressive - you can really feel the pain and despair when walking between them.

Hiking

Sculptures of emaciated people are reminiscent of the great Irish famine disaster. In my opinion artistically very successful.

The Famine Monument in Dublin was built to commemorate the Great Irish Famine of 1845-1852 and other famines that killed over a million people. It was sculpted from bronze by Rowan Gillespie and erected in 1997.
