CHRIST CHURCH CATHEDRAL DUBLIN

Notable for its exquisite architecture, Christ Church cathedral is well known to be home to the oldest and largest crypt in Britain and Ireland. Dating back to the 12th century, Christ Church Cathedral was built in 1930 by the Sitric King of the Dublin Norsemen. One of the notable places in Dublin, this church was incorporated as an Irish church in 1152 and thereafter led by Laurence O’Toole, the notable Archbishop and patron saint of Dublin.

Some of the most interesting medieval exhibits can be seen here like the manuscripts and artefacts along with many treasures of Christ Church. One of the most remarkable exhibits to be seen here includes the royal plate which was gifted by King William III in 1697 as a thanksgiving gift for his triumphant win in the Battle of the Boyne. Another rare exhibit seen at the Christ Church Cathedral is the rare 14th century copy of the Magna Carta Hiberniae.
