Church of St. John the Evangelist, Dublin, Church building in Fishamble Street, Dublin, Ireland.
The Church of St. John the Evangelist stands on the west side of Fishamble Street with oak fronted galleries and detailed architectural features.
Founded in 1168 by Giolla Michell, the church underwent multiple reconstructions, including a significant renovation in 1773 under architect George Ensor's direction.
During the 14th century, the church hosted Easter performances of the Resurrection Miracle Play, connecting religious traditions with theatrical expressions.
The building contained 42 pews shared among families and maintained two dedicated chapels, one to St. Mary and another to the Guild of Tailors.
After serving as a place of worship until 1878, the structure transformed into a parochial hall before its demolition in 1884.
