In these narrow, historic streets, you can get a good sense of what Dublin was like in the past.
Looking for a lively and creative neighbourhood steeped in history? Then you’ve come to the right place. Traditionally, ‘The Liberties’ refers to the neighbourhoods outside the protection of the castle walls. This is also the area where you can find many traces of the time when the Vikings settled here. As this area was less strictly regulated, many of Dublin’s whisky distilleries were also based here. You can still experience this today at the reopened Teeling Whisky Distillery. Furthermore, this neighbourhood offers more scope for art, culture and entrepreneurship, which is reflected in the independent shops and the Creative Quarter.
