Kilmainham

Kilmainham is a historic area close to the city centre, with a good mix of amenities for its residents who are a mix of working professionals, students and a lot of recent newcomers to the area. It is an up-and-coming, laid-back neighbourhood with trendy eating spots, traditional pubs and several popular cultural attractions. The entire area is dotted with major institutions including the Royal Hospital (now home to the Irish Museum of Modern Art), Kilmainham Gaol and St James Hospital. Kilmainham is a mix of pretty Dublin redbrick housing, from the cottages to larger homes along the western end of the South Circular Road. There is no defined village centre but there is plenty of neighbourly spirit to be found and living in Kilmainham means you are steeped in Irish history. This residential neighbourhood is very well connected to the city by bus with excellent public transport options with several bus routes and Heuston station only a few short minutes away.

History & Culture

Kilmainham is an ancient area of Dublin and was home to the first Viking base in Ireland, followed by the English who made it the centre of colonial power, ruling from the Manor of Kilmainham until Dublin Castle took precedence in the 16th century. Kilmainham Gaol is one of the most important locations of the 1916 rising, where many leaders were executed and now serves as one of the most famous museums in the country. Right across the road is the Irish Museum of Modern Art, housed in the old Royal Hospital Kilmainham. This is regarded as one of Ireland’s premier art galleries, with fantastic grounds it offers the best day out. Right in the heart of Kilmainham is the War Memorial Gardens, which has plenty of places to stroll, play and relax.
