Local historian John Seery will guide a fascinating tour around the area of Dorset Street, Dublin’s ancient road to the north. He will take you to places like Henrietta Street, Dominican Priory, St Francis Xavier Church, Dominick Street, and Blessington Sreet Basin, among others. This guided walking tour is an excellent opportunity to learn about the buildings and the heritage of this historic area which has an unusually high concentration of historical figures who have shaped the city, the nation, and in some instances, the world.

With this guided walking tour, you will get our ‘Dorset Street’ collectable illustrated booklet.
