Dail Eireann
Kildare Street
About
The current Irish Parliament has governed since 1922 and consists of the Dail (House of Representives) and the Seanad Eireann (Senate). Before its dissolution in 1800, the Irish Parliament was located in the present Bank of Ireland building on College Green. Both houses of the Irish Parliament are currently housed in the majestic mansion that is Leinster House. With a view over Merrion Square and the opportunity to see the ornate Seanad chamber, it is worth arranging a tour here. Leinster House is, for security reasons, normally not open to the public. Tours are therefore by arrangement only: for more information either telephone or ask at the Kildare Street entrance.
