Museum, Trinity College Dublin
Architect: Deane and Woodward
Interior Access
The winning design of a competition to design a museum and lecture hall complex for Trinity in 1852, this is one of the first statements in architecture of pre-Raphaelite ideals. A palazzo style structure with Lombardesque detailing, the museum is highly decorated with over 180 different carved capitals. The most impressive part of the building interior is the hallway and staircases.
The exterior is richly decorated and although pretty dirty, the detailing around the windows and doorways is still impressive.
