City Hall, Town hall in Dublin, Ireland

The City Hall features white Portland stone construction with a central Rotunda crowned by a large dome supported by twelve 32-foot columns.

Originally constructed between 1769 and 1779 as the Royal Exchange, the building transformed into Dublin City Hall during the 1850s under Dublin Corporation ownership.

The interior walls display a collection of frescoes representing different regions of Ireland, adding artistic elements to the administrative building.

Located on Dame Street adjacent to Dublin Castle, the building houses an exhibition about the capital city's development through centuries.

The Irish Citizen Army occupied City Hall during the 1916 Easter Rising, marking a critical moment in the Irish independence movement.
