Overview
This tour takes you through a modern, bustling Dublin that still holds countless reminders of its remarkable Victorian heritage. By exploring themes such as charity and philanthropy, finance and investment, science, culture, and commerce, we can follow the impressive evolution of the city throughout Victoria's reign.
During the walk, you will learn about the very real issue of poverty and disease in nineteenth-century Dublin and see some of the previous slum districts. Conditions in the slums were so horrendous that they became the focal point of the Victorian city at the expense of its great industry and progress.
This walk provides participants with a more balanced view of Victorian Dublin. In many ways a city in decline compared to the glory days of the Georgian era, in many other ways, a city on the rise in terms of infrastructure, investment, science, and culture.
