GAILY TOUR in DUBLIN - Gay Tour & Oscar Wilde's Secrets

Dublin • Gay Tour & Oscar Wilde's Secrets
Be ready for an LGBT Tour of Dublin, exploring gay history from the medieval period right up to modern day. Follow the steps of Oscar Wilde from his childhood home to his statue in Merrion Sq. Don’t miss Trinity College, the most famous university in Ireland founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth 1st of England and the scholarly home to many classical and contemporary Irish writers. Here you will see the world-famous Book of Kells, an early Christian illuminated manuscript, handwritten and beautifully decorated by Irish monks. The magnificent old library hall “The Long Room” will also impress you. Learn more about the General Post Office’s Rising, Irish fight for Independence and Sir Roger Casement, one of the key figures in Ireland's independence movement, human rights advocate who authored the first report detailing atrocities committed in King Leopold's Congo Free State, and was executed in London for his participation in the Easter Rising (rumours and contested evidence of his homosexuality likely played a deciding role in his death sentence). Afterwards have an overview of the Irish LGBT modern history, a country which became the first country to legalise same-sex marriage by popular referendum.
