凯勒梅堡监狱

第一次参观一所监狱，一次很深刻的体会。导赏员很详细的介绍了Kilmainham Gaol与爱尔兰这几百年的历史的关系，另我最感动的是他讲到Connolly与十几个在1916年的起义失败而被枪决的情况。可能这个景点是唯一一个能完完全全地呈现爱尔兰历史的黑暗。

就是个知性之旅囉，不过要事先了解一下爱尔兰的历史会比较好。里面展示各个监狱的样貌，也会有导览人员解说。不妨可以去那边几张酷搜恶搞相，如果想要更了解爱尔兰独立相关历史的话可以去走一遭！

我还以为那里是关于囚犯们怎么生活的林林总总呢,可答案却是错错错。一段关于英国人的种种恶行的怨念,一段冗长无趣的政治牢骚。真是太让我气愤了,特别是我们被安排到剧场去看那让人无法忍受的无聊视频!四处随性地走走看看还是很棒的,如果你能摆脱难缠的导游。

在那里渡过了非常愉快的一天。我听说过很多关于都柏林的事以及这个地方的历史。它的价格同时也很适合学生......仅仅只要2 欧元.

如果你去了都柏林,一定要去看这个监狱,唯一觉得不好的就是整个观光相当冗长。如果它的时间压缩到半个小时的话,便是一次很棒的参观了,但不管怎么说,仍是很有趣。能知道许多关于复活节暴动后被囚禁在这里人们的生活,非常有趣。博物馆也有许多爱尔兰的历史资料。

被一位出色的导游带领参观了监狱后,我们没有失望。如果你有一张遗产卡,你就可以免费参观。如果您将要访问爱尔兰,那你一定要选一个文物古迹去看看。如果你要在半小时内等待下一个导游的话, 博物馆是一个很好的选择。它会让你更多的了解1916年的起义。

克瞒汉姆会让你了解过去200多年来英国统治爱尔兰的情景,之所以没怎么听说过这个监狱,是因为志愿者自费翻新这里,因为爱尔兰政府没有对这个重要具有重大历史意义的地方进行维修,这里还有被英国军队饿死的孩子埋在这里呢。你还会看到1916年叛乱结束后,被英国人枪杀的英勇的爱尔兰共和军。

But of course, that can be expected of a 200 years old prison. I visited in march which was very cold and unconfortable. The tour guide was excellent and the entrance orice very reasonable 4 euros. But unless you are into early 1900's irish history, you can skil the visit.

Very knowledgeable guide who really told us so much about the Gaol and the history. Such an atmospheric tour, takes about an hour and is very busy. Get there early in the day.

Easily reachable on the HoHo bus this is a must see attraction if you want to have any appreciation of Irelands history and in particular its relationship with the UK. Lots of information to take in but well worth it and on a cold bright day in March you see what dismal place it must have been. Don't be tempted to just take the tour and miss out the museum, it's well worth it. Part of the gaol was closed when we visited, but the price had been reduced accordingly so still represented good value. You can't book in advance so it's get there, queue up and book your self on the earliest available tour or any tour that's convenient.

This was easily my favourite part of my trip to Dublin! Just €2 for a student like myself or €4 for an adult tickets and for this price you get a guided tour around the jail - brilliant value!! The history of the jail and the prisoners who were kept/executed there is very interesting and our tour guide was clear and informative. The jail is a little out of the way compared to other more central attractions but it's well worth the trip, especially if you have Green Bus Tour tickets as this drops you off right at the gate. Excellent experience!

This was such an informative tour and I leaned so much in just an hour. I love all things historic and it was so good to walk along the corridors and imagine what life was like. Our guide (Sophie I think) was very informative and friendly. I did feel the tour was slightly rushed and there wasn't many picture opportunities as we were in such a large group when we did the tour, but overall it was brilliant and well worth doing

The guided tour was perfect! The history of the jail and its tenants over the years was fascinating! When we toured it, parts were under renovation, but the fee to enter was lowered to compensate. Well worth the time! Great experience!

Just across the road from the Hilton, a little way out of town but easily reached by taking the tram (Laus) to either Heuston station and then walking (20 mins) or staying on the tram to Suir Road and Walking (15 mins).Known for the execution of the Easter rising leaders about 100 years ago, the museum tour (must do – no ability to wander around) gives a brilliant overview of the recent history of Ireland / Dublin covering the struggle of independence. Many stages are covered from 18th century through the Easter Rising and the Irish Free state civil war. Fascinating history – with a sad conclusion as you see the cells where those about to be executed were held and the yards were the executions took place – and then the personal belongings and stories in the museum which you can walk around after the tour. Well worth the visit

Despite the wing in the picture being closed for refurbishment, i'm glad we visited the gaol!! Informative & very interesting, its not just about the gaol as the guide also explained the history of Ireland i.e the colours in the flag!!!
