• The Temple Bar - Our story dates back to 1599 when Sir William Temple, a renowned teacher and philosopher, began serving the Lord Deputy of Ireland. In 1609, Temple became Provost of Trinity College, Dublin, and Master Chancery in Ireland, relocating to this country.

Sir William Temple constructed his house and gardens on newly reclaimed land at the corner of Temple Lane and the street now known as Temple Bar.

In 1656, his son, Sir John Temple, acquired more land. With the reclamation enabled by a new sea wall, the area we now call Temple Bar began to develop. In the 17th century, “Barr” (later shortened to Bar) referred to a raised estuary sandbank often used for walking.

Thus, the river Liffey embankment alongside the Temple’s Barr became simply Temple Bar.

This later evolved into the present thoroughfare connecting Westmoreland Street to Fishamble Street.

• City Hall - City Hall was built between 1769 and 1779, taking ten years to complete. When the decision was made to build City Hall, a competition was held, and 62 submissions were received. The winner was Thomas Cooley, a young architect from London. At the time, James Gandon was the primary architect in Dublin, but his designs came second in the competition. Thomas Cooley was also commissioned to build the Four Courts, but he fell ill and died at the age of 44, so James Gandon took over the project. The ceiling features a stained glass dome, which was initially meant to be left open like the Pantheon, but due to Ireland’s frequent rain, it was covered. The stonework was done by a German man named Simon Vierpyl, and the gilded work was by a stuccodore named Charles Thorpe. Initially, City Hall was built as The Royal Exchange, where Irish Punt was exchanged for English Sterling. Merchants and guildsmen gathered here to discuss trade. The west door on Castle Street led to the banks, and the east windows overlooked the trading area. Near the Olympia Theatre was where debts were collected. This was the epicenter of trade in Dublin in the late 18th century. The Wide Streets Commission used the building in the late 1780s and 1790s for city planning. The outer ring of the Rotunda was designed to create an echo to muffle private conversations. Upstairs, in what are now the Council Chambers, there were coffee rooms. Coffee was a luxury item and very fashionable in the 18th and 19th centuries. The Act of Union in 1800 had a devastating effect on Dublin’s economy, and by 1827 the currency was amalgamated. The building fell into disuse and was rented out. O’Connell gave his first public address on the Act of Union here, one of his most famous speeches. In 1852, Dublin City Council bought the building and added partitions for privacy. From 1998 to 2000, the Council restored the building to its original state as part of a refurbishment plan for the millennium.
