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.
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
