2-Hour Macabre Dublin Walking Tour

This is a 2-hour walking tour where we explore the lesser-known streets of the old city centre whilst describing the more gruesome parts of the history of Dublin.

On this Macabre tour you will discover a more sinister side to the history of our city and hear stories of torture, executions and serial killers.

From the heart of the city outside the GPO we head west through the previous Viking and medieval areas of the north inner city before crossing the river and finishing in one of the oldest parts of the city beside Christchurch and Temple Bar.

We meet beside the Spire, the 120 metre sculpture in the centre of Dublin.

We view the statue and hear the story of the Death of Cuchulainn.

We hear stories of Victorian-era grave robbers and the wedding venue of Arthur Guinness.

Outside the old fruit and vegetable market we describe the history of the Vikings in this area and we hear about some of the gorier aspects of Viking ritual!

We describe the end for the soldier devoured by the man-eating rats.

We see the quarantine cages at the old city walls from the Black Death.

We tell the tale of an infamous brothel keeper and her death by fire at the stake.

We learn about the mummified corpses in the cellar and the legless serial killer.
