Charlemont House, Georgian mansion in Parnell Square, Dublin, Ireland.

Charlemont House is a three-story stone building with classical features located north of Parnell Square. The facade displays five bays with curved screen walls, decorative niches, and balustrades, while ornamental obelisks frame the entrance.

Architect William Chambers designed the building in 1763 for an Irish art collector and cultural patron. It was later converted into a municipal art museum and has continued to expand its collection.

The house was built for James Caulfeild, 1st Earl of Charlemont, who kept paintings there by Rembrandt, Hogarth, Tintoretto and van Dyck. Since 1933 it has held the Hugh Lane Dublin City Gallery. The house appears in James Malton's views of Dublin and in Andrew Hughes's novel The Coroner's Daughter, the 2023 One City One Book choice.

Charlemont House stands on the north side of Parnell Square, at the top of O'Connell Street, reachable on foot from the city centre. The Hugh Lane gallery occupies the house itself, so the historic rooms and the collection are seen in one visit. Enter from the square and allow time for both floors.

James Malton's view of Dublin shows the house only partly, seen from the corner of Rutland Square. The Earl's paintings included Rembrandt's Judas Repentant, Returning the Pieces of Silver and Hogarth's The Lady's Last Stake and The Gate of Calais, alongside works by Tintoretto and van Dyck. The house appears in Andrew Hughes's novel The Coroner's Daughter, chosen as the Dublin UNESCO City of Literature One City One Book for 2023.
