Mansion House, Official residence building in Dublin, Ireland

The Mansion House features a symmetrical frontage with seven bays, Ionic order columns, and an ornate entablature above the entrance point.

Dublin Corporation purchased the Mansion House from Joshua Dawson in 1715, establishing it as the permanent residence for the Lord Mayor of Dublin.

The Round Room of the Mansion House hosted the First Dáil assembly in 1919, marking the proclamation of Irish independence from British rule.

Visitors can participate in guided tours through multiple ground-floor chambers, including the Oak Room, Drawing Room, and Lady Mayoress Parlour.

Each Lord Mayor creates a personal coat of arms with the Chief Herald of Ireland, which then becomes displayed permanently in the Oak Room.
