Restoration

Heritage Centre

What has already been achieved in these few short months already foreshadows the vast contribution the OPW is making to the transformation of this National Cemetery into a worthy centre for the celebration of those heroes of the War of Independence whose graves lie within its walls. The Cemeteries Committee, for its part, is committed to the building of an exciting new Heritage Centre beside the Finglas Road entrance which will be proceeding hand in hand with the OPW work in illuminating the history of the Cemetery and its occupants, and will form a suitable introduction to the Cemetery which on completion, should bid fair to become one of Dublin’s – and the country’s – major tourist attractions and, indeed, one of the worlds major attractions to see before you die.
