Walking Tour of St. Stephen's Green

Lead by local historian Arran Henderson, we have created this tour with special consideration given to ensuring we explore at a leisurely pace to appreciate the richness of the surroundings, and with various resting points factored in along the way. If we have a larger group, audio equipment will be provided so that all attendees can clearly hear our guide each step of the way. The route will bring us on a complete walking circuit around all four sides of Saint Stephen’s Green, Dublin’s first and greatest residential square, laid out all the way back in the 1600s. We’ll look at 400 years of spectacular architecture, change and evolution, talking about everything from schools, hospitals, former, now-forgotten museums, to collages, churches, chapels and huge aristocratic 18th century mansions. All of us at Engaging Dementia and Dublin Decoded look forward to welcoming you on what will be a spectacular tour experience

Price: Free of charge. This tour is for over 65s, including those living with dementia, their loved ones and carers.

Date and Time: Wed 28th of Sept 11:30am to 1pm

Location: The group meeting point is Fusilier’s Arch, at 11:15am. This is more commonly known as the main archway entrance to St. Stephen’s Green, across the road from the top of Grafton Street. (As shown in picture)

Notes: This is a loop route tour so will end at the starting point. Audio equipment will be provided to ensure all persons can hear our tour guide and historian, Arran Henderson. A leisurely space will be kept and there will be stopping points included along the way for short rests.
