The Four Courts

James Gandon’s domed courthouse commands the north bank of the Liffey; its exterior tells a strong story even without public interior access.

The Four Courts

Why go

The Four Courts is one of Dublin’s clearest neoclassical compositions and a major landmark in Civil War history. View it from the opposite quay to understand the dome and river frontage, then cross nearby for details in the stonework and rebuilt fabric.

What to look for

  • The central copper dome above a Corinthian portico
  • The long river façade seen from the south quay

Useful to know

  • Plan this as an exterior architecture stop
  • Do not assume court interiors are open for sightseeing
