14 Henrietta Street

14 Henrietta Street is one of Dublin's first Georgian houses. Built in the 1720s, it is now a museum devoted entirely to the changing history of the building and its street. Built in Dublin's north inner city, it's a perfect example of the city's aristocratic Georgian houses, which later became tenements housing squalor and poverty. A worthwhile visit to discover Dublin's deep-rooted identity! <a href="https://www.go-to-ireland.com/what-to-see/14-henrietta-street/">[...]</a>
