Join Barry Kehoe, historian and member of IMMA’s Visitor Engagement Team, for a bespoke walking lecture from the East to West Gates of the IMMA and Royal Hospital Kilmainham.
During this heritage tour, Barry will discuss his ongoing research to locate the medieval Priory of the Knights Hospitallers. Barry will take you on a historical journey unveiling the morphology of the hill terrace of Kilmainham from the earliest bronze age settlement, through to its monastic settlement and Viking Occupation. Barry will also discuss the occupation by the crusading Knights hospitallers before the re-engineering of the land to accommodate the baroque neoclassical Royal Hospital.
