Built-in the 11th century, Christ Church is Dublin's original medieval cathedral and home to the largest medieval crypt in Ireland. Among the biggest and oldest of its kind anywhere in the British Isles, it's home to majestic tombs, and precious medieval artwork, while The King's Treasury inside the Crypt holds incredible holy relics.

Make sure to visit the Treasures of Christ Church exhibition, featuring priceless silver and Ireland's first copy of the Magna Carta, and pick up an audio guide (subject to availability) as part of your self-guided tour. These information-filled guides contain three themes for you to choose from: ‘Power and Politics’, ‘Christ Church and the City’ and ‘Music and Spirituality.

Christ Church is Dublin's first cathedral and the seat of its archbishops for a thousand years. When you enter its hallowed doors, you'll be following in the footsteps of quite a few saints. Situated in the heart of the city, the church is Dublin's oldest working structure, and it remains in use today.

Renowned for its magnificent architecture and fascinating history, you'll be able to admire the stunning stained glass and unique floor tiles of the cathedral nave, learn the secrets of Strongbow’s tomb, and uncover the amazing story of the heart of St. Laurence O'Toole – Dublin's patron saint.
