St. Mary's Church, Dublin, Church building in Dublin, Ireland.

Located at Mary Street and Jervis Street intersection, St. Mary's Church features high galleries and a distinguished pipe organ built by Renatus Harris.

Constructed between 1700 and 1701 under architect William Robinson's direction, the church separated from St. Michan's Parish through a 1697 parliamentary act.

The marriage of Arthur Guinness in 1761 and the baptism of playwright Sean O'Casey in 1880 occurred within these church walls.

The structure now functions as a restaurant and pub establishment, while Wolfe Tone Square occupies the former churchyard space with preserved gravestones.

The church holds the distinction of being Dublin's first large building constructed with internal galleries, setting a precedent for future religious architecture.
