Kilmainham Gaol is a must see for any visitors to Dublin looking for history. Leaders of the rebellions of 1798, 1803, 1848,1867 and 1916 were detained and in some cases executed here. This is about 15 minutes walk away from the apartment, and is nice to combine with a walk to the Modern Art museum and the park around the Irish National War Memorial.
