We are delighted to offer primary schools tours of the nearby historic Goldenbridge Cemetery.
Richmond Barracks is a building of historical importance located in Inchicore. It is home to a library, garden, and Culture Connects - a programme of cultural activities that celebrate the experiences and interests of the local communities and people.
Goldenbridge Cemetery, located beside Richmond Barracks, was Ireland’s first garden cemetery and non-denominational burial ground, founded by Daniel O’Connell almost 200 years ago. In this unspoilt cemetery, students can learn about the vaults, armed guards, Cuban bloodhounds, body snatchers, and the people buried within its walls.
You will see all of the details below. Feel free to share this link with other teachers in your school, and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
