Turning the corner on to Henrietta Street, you can't help but catch your breath. The exterior of these Georgian townhouses rise in an unbroken red-brick jigsaw from the cobbled street right up to the blue sky above. At the far end, the soft grey curves of the King's Inns arch elegantly, all perfectly hewn granite and wrought-iron gates.

Inside 14 Henrietta Street, Dublin
When the Dublin city council Culture Company took over the building, things really took off. In September 2018, 14 Henrietta Street opened its doors as a museum - and of the two vastly different periods in the building's history. Step inside and you can walk in the footsteps of the elite who once called this prestigious 18th-century dwelling home; but you can also hear about the countless impoverished Dubliners in the late 19th and early 20th century, who lived here.
