Four Courts Along the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland
The Four Courts (Irish: Na Ceithre Cúirteanna) is Ireland's main courts building, located on Inns Quay in Dublin. The Four Courts is the location of the Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal, the High Court and the Dublin Circuit Court. Until 2010 the building also housed the Central Criminal Court; this is now located in the Criminal Courts of Justice.
The building originally housed the four courts of Chancery, King's Bench, Exchequer and Common Pleas, giving the name to the building.
Under the Supreme Court of Judicature Act (Ireland) 1877, these four courts were replaced by the Court of Appeal, presided by the Lord Chancellor, and the High Court of Justice, presided by Lord Chief Justice, but the building has retained its historic name.
On 14 April 1922 the courts complex was occupied by IRA forces opposed to the Anglo-Irish Treaty, led by Rory O'Connor. On 27 June the new National Army attacked the building to dislodge the rebels, on the orders of the Minister for Defence Richard Mulcahy, authorised by President of Dáil Éireann Arthur Griffith.
After being closed and nearly destroyed for almost a decade because of the Civil War and after the courts sat in the old viceregal apartments in Dublin Castle, the Four Courts were renovated and open once again. This is one thing that Ireland gained once again from the old buildings that carries a huge history along with the magnificent interiors and exteriors related to it. But in this case, we should mention that the interiors of the Four Courts was lost when the place was destroyed due to the absence of the documentary archives as well as the funds which were not present. The changes that were done these days to the Four Courts building changed the plan as well as the effect that was planned by Gandon in 1796.
The Four courts, which is most significant for the round hall and the dome, do not offer heritage tours but it allows the public to come inside and wander from Monday to Friday starting from 10 AM till 5 PM, and people are also allowed to go into the courtrooms and get the chance to observe most of the cases but one could not come into the courtroom when the case is being heard in private (on camera).
The Four Courts place is mostly known for being a landmark in Dublin for its exterior and the history one will get the chance to know about and hear, but when it comes to the interiors of the place, there is not much that one could see. When you are visiting Dublin, you should come across this place from the outside at least and if you are too keen to listen to any of the cases then it is better to check them online to know what are the cases listed for hearing.
We consider this place one that is rich with information, starting with being on old historical building that witnessed the Civil War and was even destroyed by it and at the same time it has been renovated and rebuilt once again so that it could be used one more time.
Placing this attraction on the list of things that one should do in Dublin city, Ireland, and the places that should be visited, it is important to mention that there are still several other places that one should step by when it comes to the capital city of Ireland to get more introduced to it and see all those important buildings and places that shaped its present now and managed to influence it.
Among the list of things to do in Dublin, one should visit the Merrion square which was the place where different well known characters were born and used to live and where there is the garden that attracts people to it by being a beautiful greenery space and at the same time having some statues and memorials inside (
In addition to the Merrion square, one could also enjoy walking in some of the streets that are known to be an attraction for shopping and culture, such as the O'Connell street ( or Grafton street (
Going through the list of places to visit in Dublin city, Ireland, we should also mention the Trinity College in Dublin which was found in 1592 and which tourists love to pass by ( you could also visit the Dublinia Viking Museum that will offer a lot of information about the history of the vikings and the medieval times of the city ( get to see the famous Molly Malone statue ( or else get the chance to ride the hop-on hop-off bus and go through a tour in the city (
Dublin is a city that one should definitely visit to know more about Ireland since it is the capital city and at the same time it carries a lot of attractions and landmarks that one will enjoy coming across.
The Four Courts might not be much interesting for lots of tourists to come inside, but it is definitely a place one will enjoy from the outside.

Trip to Ireland | Day 6 | Kilmainham Gaol & Guinness Storehouse
READ FOR MORE INFO:
From October 15th to the 22nd, me and Pepper went on a trip to Dublin, Ireland. We stayed at a friend's house (THANK YOU ❤️) and, on our last day, we visited Kilmainham Gaol during the morning time and went to the Guinness Strorehouse after lunch :)
In this video, you can see:
1- Kilmainham Gaol. We were excited to visit and take the visit but unfortunately the East wing was closed... We had a nice guide who showed our group around and taught us a lot of that place's history. Leaving the prison, we even had time for one more cache.
2- Guinness Storehouse. We had intended to visit Guinness AND Jameson on the last day, but, as you can see, Guinness took all of our remaining time. We didn't think it would be so big! My favourite part was the last floor :p as is probably for most people.
3- Our flight back home. We flew with Ryanair and were sad to leave Dublin..

Dublin Medieval Charm Georgian Splendour DVD Trailer - Unicorn Films
Buy our new Dublin DVD Film here
This award winning film is presented and narrated by Cathal O'Shannon, one of Ireland's best known and respected documentary film presenter. The film, with a captivating music score by Ken Tuohy, is an ideal reference for tourists, students and all who live in Dublin or visit this great city.
The Vikings landed north of Dublin on Lambay Island in 795 A.D. Half a century later their boats sailed up the River Liffey. They settled on its banks and named their settlement Dyfflin. Two centuries later the Normans invaded Ireland.
Cathal O'Shannon's superb narration, together with realistic illustrations, captures the atmosphere of these periods in Dublin's turbulent history.
The history of Christ Church and St. Patrick's Cathedrals is covered in great detail. Cathal visits Trinity College, home of the Book of Kells and covers the history of Gandon's famous buildings, The Custom House, The Four Courts and Parliament Buildings.
Cathal takes a horse and carriage trip around the great Georgian Squares, Fitzwilliam and Merrion and outlines their history. Also covered is the rise and fall of Charles Stewart Parnell, the Phoenix Park murders of 1882, the 1913 workers strike and the Howth Gun Running episode culminating in the events of Easter Week 1916. This is illustrated with a superb collection of photographs courtesy of the various national archives.
In Kilmainham Gaol Cathal tells the tragic story of Joseph Mary Plunkett who married Grace Gifford only hours before his execution in 1916. The War of Independence, the leadership of Michael Collins, and the Irish Civil war in Dublin is also included. Finally Cathal visits some of Dublin's most famous pubs associated with great Irish writers. He relaxes with a pint in Ireland's oldest pub, The Brazen Head Inn, and tells of the famous visitors who frequented it over the centuries.

Fox Hunt - Part 1 - Shannon County Film Digitization Project
Camera roll 321 is the first of seven (321, 322, 323, 324, 325, 326, 327) filmed during an early morning fox hunt with Seaman Rayfield, Edward Piatt, and Edward's nephew, Eugene. While a fox hunt provides the setting for this series of rolls, much of the footage consists of conversation among the participants and responses to questions asked by the filmmakers. Often information is imparted by way of a story. The material covers a wide range of topics including fox hunting, dog breeding, the need men have for a sport, the personality of dogs, marriage, the roles of men and women, raising children, living in the city, Shannon County as home, trading dogs, and swapping knives. Roll 321 begins in the pre-dawn hours as two pickup trucks with dog kennels are driving down a country road. The trucks stop on a gravel road beside an open field. The hounds are loosed from the kennels and run through a fence into the field. Following a short conversation about the weather conditions for hunting, Seaman Rayfield talks about the July breed of fox hound, explains some of finer points of fox hunting, and tells why he considers it a sport. Footage shot on May 31, 1979, in Shannon County, Missouri.
Part of the raw footage recorded 1978-1979 for the 1981 documentary motion pictures Shannon County: Home and Shannon County: Hearts of the Children. Located in Special Collections, Meyer Library, Missouri State University.
