FRIENDS OF MEDIEVAL DUBLIN
WALKS FOR HERITAGE WEEK

As part of the successful annual Heritage Week run by the Heritage Council, the Friends of Medieval Dublin will hold three guided walks exploring the unique archaeology and turbulent history of Viking and later medieval Dublin. These three walks are based around maps devised through the collaboration of the Friends of Medieval Dublin and Dublin City Council, who publish the maps.

There are three walks which cover different aspects of medieval Dublin: the St Audoen's walk, the Dublinia walk and the City Hall walk. Leaving at 5.30pm, the first walk on Monday 27 August will leave from City Hall in Dame Street Dublin 2. The second on Wednesday 29 August will leave from the Dublinia Heritage Centre at Christ Church, St Michael's Hill, Dublin 8 and finally the last walk will start from St Audoen's church in High Street, Dublin 8 on Friday 31 August 2007.

Admission is free. Attendance would not be suitable for young children, and wheel chair access, covering the paths of Dublin, is only partial. No car parking is available. Please let us know in advance which walk you are interested in. This will help us to organize more than one guide per walk if needed. Thank you for your cooperation.

For those interested in participating, please contact the chairman of the Friends of Medieval Dublin, Dr Seán Duffy, Department of History, School of Histories and Humanities, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 2. Email: sduffy@tcd.ie or telephone: 01 8961801.
