Marsh's Library, situated in St. Patrick's Close, adjacent to St. Patrick's Cathedral, is a well-preserved library of the late Renaissance and early Enlightenment. When it opened to the public in 1707 it was the first public library in Ireland. Went there with my kids and it was great- they created their own bookmarks with old Irish Letter stamps :-). Best to visit before/after St. Patrick's Cathedral.

Book of Kells exhibition, and the whole campus! You can even have lunch at The Buttery Food Court- college cafeteria somehow similar to Harry Potter's Howard's dining area (but much smaller!)

Fantastic tour and experience for any Whisky fan or even those new to the drink - the whole experience is very enjoyable and tour guides are welcoming, knowledgable and very friendly.
You are out into timed groups and have a history lesson of Guinness, details on the manufacturing process and then finally a Jameson taste off vs Scottish Whisky and American Bourbon.
Once finishing you are free to go to the bar and redeem your drink and enjoy!

ilmainham Gaol is a former prison in Kilmainham, Dublin, Ireland. It is now a museum run by the Office of Public Works, an agency of the Government of Ireland. Many Irish revolutionaries, including the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising, were imprisoned and executed in the prison by the orders of the UK Government. It is by far the best Guided tour in Dublin.

Dublin Castle is a major Irish government complex, conference centre, and tourist attraction, of significant historical importance. It is located off Dame Street in central Dublin. Until 1922 it was the seat of the British government's administration in Ireland. Most of the current construction dates from the 18th century, though a castle has stood on the site since the days of King John, the first Lord of Ireland. The Castle served as the seat of English, then later British, government of Ireland under the Lordship of Ireland, the Kingdom of Ireland, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. After the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in December 1921, the complex was ceremonially handed over to the newly formed Provisional Government led by Michael Collins. It now hosts the inauguration of each President of Ireland and various State receptions. The castle was built by the dark pool which gave Dublin its name. This pool lies on the lower course of the River Poddle before its confluence with the River Liffey; when the castle was built, the Liffey was much wider, and the castle was effectively defended by both rivers. The Poddle today runs under the complex.
