Lonely Planet review for Christ Church Cathedral

Dublin’s most imposing church and famed landmark, Christ Church Cathedral lies within the city’s original Norse settlement and the old heart of medieval Dublin. It was commissioned in 1172 by the Anglo-Norman conqueror of Dublin, Richard de Clare – ‘Strongbow’ – whose tomb is just inside the main door, and Archbishop Laurence O’Toole. Try to visit just before choral evensong to catch the choir’s wonderfully evocative recitals, which bring the cathedral’s rich atmosphere to life.
