St Patrick's Cathedral (1191) is the national cathedral of the Church of Ireland. Located in the centre of Dublin, this pilgrimage site bridges more than 800 years of history. It was built in the 1200s on the site of a previous church and well. The materials are limestone and imported stone from Bristol. The gothic style resembles the England's Old Sarum Cathedral close to Salisbury. Tours are available. And of course, some years Sunday worshippers may be present on St. Patrick's Day.
