About this event

Goldenbridge Cemetery is Ireland's first garden cemetery and was founded by ‘the Liberator’ Daniel O’Connell almost 200 years ago. Visitors will be guided through this unspoilt cemetery and learn about its unique history.

You will hear the stories of two former Taoisigh and their family member Vol. Thomas Burke killed in action in the Easter Rebellion. A new stone has been erected over Eugene Lynch killed by in 1916, aged eight years. You will visit the resting place of a rebel priest of 1798 and Doctor Bob Kenny who befriended Parnell and James Joyce.

Please note, the tour through the Garden Cemetery takes place on uneven terrain and paths and we ask all visitors to wear sturdy footwear and please follow the guides instructions and directions at all times. This is an outdoor experience so please dress for all weathers
