St Patrick's Cathedral, Anglican cathedral in Dublin, Ireland.
The limestone cathedral measures 74 meters in length and features a 43-meter-high tower with architectural elements of Gothic design throughout the structure.
The cathedral stands on the site of a wooden church from the 5th century, while the current stone structure was built by the Normans in 1191.
The cathedral houses numerous tombs and monuments commemorating notable Irish citizens, including Jonathan Swift, who served as dean from 1713 to 1745.
The cathedral opens daily with regular tours, adult admission costs 10 euros, and visitors can reach it via bus lines 49, 49A, 54A, 77A, and 150.
The medieval baptismal font remains in its original condition, marking the spot where Saint Patrick reportedly baptized converts to Christianity around 450 CE.
