크라이스트 처치 대성당

The medieval crypt is a fascinating part of this historic building where visitors can discover fascinating artefacts, memorials and the famous mummified ‘cat and the rat’. This unusual pair are two of the most visited exhibits of the crypt and were even mentioned in James Joyce’s Finnegan’s Wake. The Treasures of Christ Church exhibition is well worth a visit, where visitors can see old religious relics including priceless silver and Ireland’s first copy of Magna Carta. Additionally, the heart of the Patron Saint of Dublin, Laurence O’Toole resides in the Cathedral.

The choir of Christ Church Cathedral is the most prestigious choir in Dublin and one of the most reputed in Ireland. Singing four times a week, Evensong is a must-visit to catch the spiritual songs of this historic choir. As an institution which dates back to the 15th century, the church choir is an important part of religious worship at Christ Church and one not to be missed.
