Review:
St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin is the Church of Ireland’s National Cathedral. The church was built in 1191 and is the tallest and largest church in the country. Oddly enough, the church is not the seat of a bishop; rather, the Bishop of Dublin is seated at Christ Church Cathedral. Many people believe that St. Patrick’s was originally meant to replace Christ Church as it is quite unusual for there to be two cathedrals in one city. Many national ceremonies take place at the cathedral each year, including Ireland’s Remembrance Day ceremonies. A number of graduation ceremonies are also held here. There are guided tours available 6 days a week free of charge.
