Moore Street is a famous area of Dublin, appreciated for its markets as well as for its History with a capital H… This renowned street exudes dynamism and joie de vivre. The shopkeepers here are friendly and welcoming, so much so that Dubliners are used to meeting there, if only to chat with friends!
Moore Street has a special place in the hearts of Dubliners. Firstly, because it is home to the city’s oldest market, but also because it symbolizes an episode in Irish history… During the Easter Rising in 1916, 6 Irish nationalists surrendered to British forces on the terrace of a house in Moore Street. These 6 nationalists were none other than the leaders of the insurrection:
Since then, Moore Street N°14, 16 and 17 have been declared National Monuments in 2007. However, a current housing development could threaten the preservation of these houses, which is causing quite a stir in Dublin.
Moore Street is located not far from Henry Street, one of the city’s main shopping streets. The street is a great place to stroll, do a little shopping, and discover the Irish terroir, with its colorful and delicious fruits and vegetables!
Don’t be surprised if you’re snapped up by a shopkeeper with a strong Dublin accent: here, shopkeepers approach passers-by with a smile, and will even take the time to chat with you to find out where you’re from!
