Description:
Designed
by James Gandon. Built from 1786 and 1802, the Four Courts, and the
Custom House, are the finest neoclassical
architecture in the city of Dublin.
In 1916 the four courts was fired on by British troops and in 1922 Michael Collins shelled the
building. The building was set on fire, and many
archive manuscripts were destroued by the flames.
Restored in 1932, visitors can still see the results of the shelling. It
houses the Irish High and Supreme Courts, and also is home to the law library.
Opening
Times: FreeAdmission: Mon-Fri 10am-1pm and 2pm-4pm.
