Famine Memorial Sculptures

Highlight • Monument

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

Jeanie Johnston Famine Ship and Museum

Highlight • Monument

Here lies the impressive replica of a sailing ship from the 19th century. The original once brought countless hungry Irish people to America. Today you can visit a museum on the history of the Great Famine on board.

Samuel Beckett Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Modern cable-stayed bridge from 2009, designed by Santiago Calatrava, recognizable by its large white arch and 31 cables that together evoke the shape of an Irish harp. The bridge connects Sir John Rogerson’s Quay to Guild Street in the Docklands and can rotate 90° to allow ships to pass. It is one of the most photogenic spots along the Liffey, especially in the evening light with the reflections on the water.

The Linesman Statue

Highlight • Monument

Bronze statue by Dony McManus from 2000, located on City Quay as a tribute to the dockworkers who used to unload and tie up ships on the Liffey. The kneeling figure pulling on a rope perfectly captures the physical labour and maritime character of the old Docklands. It is a photogenic, realistic work that sits beautifully by the waterfront and the modern buildings behind it.
