Unitarian Church

Grafton Street & St Stephen's Green


The Unitarian Church was built in 1863 to house two Unitarian congregations. Although nominally rooted in Presbyterianism, the church is a favourite with Dubliners looking to marry in accordance with a range of personal beliefs, including agnostics and nonbelievers who still want a little pizazz in their ceremony.
