 WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE MUMMIES

St. Michan Church has an interesting history even without the mummies. The
foundation of the church was built in 1095 to serve the ostracized Vikings, who
were still in Ireland after the rest had been killed by Irish forces in 1014. The
church was rebuilt in 1686, and a large pipe organ was installed in 1724.
DUBLIN CASTLE
DUBLIN CASTLE

● Dublin Castle is a major Irish government complex, conference

centre, and tourist attraction. It is located off Dame Street in
Dublin.
● Dublin Castle has fulfilled a number of roles through its history.

● Originally built as a defensive fortification for the Norman city of

Dublin, it later evolved into an official residence, used by the
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland or Viceroy of Ireland, the
representative of the Monarch.
DUBLIN CASTLE

● The second in command in the Dublin Castle

administration, the Chief Secretary for Ireland, also
had his offices there. Over the years parliament and
law courts met at the castle before moving to new
purpose-built venues. Until 1922 it was the seat of
the British government's administration in Ireland.

● It also served as the base for a military garrison and

later also intelligence services.
