Revolutionary Marks

The Royal College of Surgeons, being one of the representations of the British administration in Ireland, was the site of a major gun battle between the government forces and the revolutionary rebels during the famous Easter Rising of 1916. Its columns and portico bear many marks of bullets.

 

The imposing building on St. Stephen's Green West was completed in 1806.
