Join us for a tour of the follies of St. Enda’s Park, a remarkable collection of 18th and 19th century monuments, placed around the parklands by the original owners, the Hudson family, to add drama and interest to the landscape. When Patrick Pearse moved his school here in 1910, the follies found new life in the imagination of his pupils, and provided a backdrop to their open-air plays and pageants.

Note: this is an outdoor tour. Please wear appropriate footwear and weather appropriate clothing.
