1916 Rebellion Walking Tours of Dublin

The Eastern Rising is a pivotal moment in Ireland’s history. The 1916 battle over Ireland’s status as an Independent Republic had an impact that’s still felt today. Now, it’s possible for folks to walk the very same streets that were the site of so much chaos just over ninety years ago.

Visitors to Dublin can learn more about the Eastern Rising and the events surrounding it by talking a walking tour with the authors of some of the most comprehensive books on the topic. Lorcan Collins and Conner Kostick provide a great walking tour of Dublin sites relevant to the Rising. If you want to experience history “on site” with the experts, check out one of these special walking tours of Dublin.
