THE NATIONAL GALLERY
The National Gallery was opened in 1864 and houses many fine pieces of art. Irish art is strongly emphasised, but there is equal representation accommodated to all of the major European schools of art.
Much of the collection in this gallery is owed to generous donations. More than 600 works are on display in the gallery, and there are special exhibitions which are changed regularly. Admission to the gallery is free and group tours are available with prior booking.
