Garden of Remembrance, Memorial park in Parnell Square, Ireland

The Garden of Remembrance is a memorial garden in the northern fifth of the former Rotunda Gardens on Parnell Square, Dublin. Its sunken cruciform pool has a light blue-green bottom and is bordered by light grey stone paving with rows of wooden benches with green slats. Beyond the pool, a wide stone staircase rises between low stone walls with grass behind them.

President Eamon de Valera opened the site in 1966 to honor those who fought for Irish freedom between 1798 and 1921. The location is where the Irish Volunteers formed in 1913, and where several leaders of the 1916 Rising were held before their transfer to Kilmainham Gaol.

The garden's Irish name is An Gairdín Cuimhneacháin. On the stone wall, Liam Mac Uistín's aisling poem "We Saw a Vision", winner of a 1976 contest, appears in Irish, French and English. The aisling form was used in eighteenth-century poems longing for an end to Ireland's troubles.

The garden sits in the northern fifth of the former Rotunda Gardens, off Parnell Square at the top of O'Connell Street, near the Gate Theatre. A new entrance was built on the northern side in 2007. The sunken cruciform pool is reached by a wide stone staircase, and the paving alongside it is level, with wooden benches with green slats on both sides.

The site served as a gathering point during preparations for the Easter Rising, and many of those later executed spent their final free hours there. The mosaic tiles in the pool depict weapons thrown into water, a symbol of laying down arms.
