St James' Church, Dublin, Catholic church in James Street, Dublin, Ireland
The red brick church stands at the intersection of James Street and Echlin Street, featuring traditional ecclesiastical architecture with unfinished clock tower plans.
Daniel O'Connell laid the first stone of the current structure in 1844, during construction that spanned through the Great Famine and a cholera epidemic.
The church maintains a significant crucifix from 1742, which parishioners have venerated each Good Friday for nearly three centuries.
The parish office opens Monday and Tuesday from 9:00 AM to noon, Thursday from 10:30 AM to noon, with access through Echlin Street entrance.
Pilgrims starting their Camino to Santiago receive their Irish passport and first stamp at this church before beginning their journey to Spain.
