EDUCATION EVENT : SPECIALISED HISTORY TOUR!
If you've visited Phoenix Park (OPW), you've probably noticed the 203 ft high obelisk commemorating the 'Iron Duke'!

The tour will also examine the question of 'Why, Wellington?' From all of those who served the Castle's history, why did Wellington end up in the history books?
