Dublin Castle

Courtyard of Dublin Castle at night

As Samhain approaches and the shadows of the Dubh Linn lengthen,
Explore the medieval Fair City, with all the gory bits left in...

Join Tour Guide Daragh on his 'Morbid Medieval Dublin' tour through Dublin Castle's history. During the tour, Daragh will act as 'medieval peasant' as he tells the story of a city tackling wars, plagues and ghastly justice systems. Participants will learn about Viking raid etiquette, advice on 'how to avoid a plague', medieval 'Law & Order' and murderous monks, all while walking through the grounds and medieval undercroft of Dublin Castle. This darkly humorous tour is suitable for those interested in all things medieval and not for the faint-hearted!
