Freestanding stone-built Greek Revival Catholic cathedral, built 1814-25, on cruciform plan with pedimented portico. Possibly designed by John Sweetman, with involvement of John Taylor and George Papworth. Altered and extended c.1835, c.1840, c.1857 and c.1928. Roof concealed by coursed granite ashlar parapet walls with replacement metal rainwater goods breaking through to re-entrant angles. Single-span pitched slate roof with ridge running east to west, interrupted in centre by large copper clad dome on octagonal base. Roof bowed to west apse with hipped slate roofs to four corner pavilions and later accretions. Deep moulded Portland stone cornice to base of parapet spanning front and side elevations with mutules and guttae having frieze below enriched with triglyphs and metopes, plain to pavilions. Coursed squared granite ashlar walls with platband at sill level, squared coursed calp limestone to rear elevation only. Prostyle hexastyle Greek Doric portico executed in Portland stone with fluted columns on raised granite plinths and full-span pediment surmounted by three statues by Thomas Kirk, added c.1845. Central double-height square-headed door opening with moulded granite architrave surround, double-leaf flat-panelled wood-grained timber doors and overpanel. Door opening flanked by marble water fonts set into walls with further square-headed door opening to either side with moulded architrave surrounds and double-leaf flat-panelled wood-grained timber doors with incorporated lights. Doors opens onto granite-paved stylobate with seven granite steps with entire east and south railed areas paved to height of raised plinth wall. Square-headed blind window to both cheeks of portico with architrave surrounds and entablature. All four projections have pedimented tripartite window opening executed in Portland stone with Doric columns fronting stone mullions, twelve-over twelve-pane timber sliding sash windows to southeast and northwest projections and fish-scale leaded stained glazing to southwest projection. Colonnaded central wing to east elevation has granite ashlar walls and five square-headed window openings with fish-scale leaded stained glass flanked by engaged fluted Portland stone Doric columns supporting Portland stone Doric entablature and parapet wall with corresponding squat piers.

Rear elevation extends to north as single-storey granite accretion with further two-storey block having Diocletian window openings. Front and south side elevations are enclosed to street by decorative wrought and cast-iron railings and set on raised granite plinth with scrolled iron panels surmounted by crucifixes and matching iron gates.

Enjoy the grace of God! #MinSinAtCathedral #MyWifeClicked #PicIshere.
A special service blessing of the chrism. Very beautiful. Palestrina Choir fantastic. More priests than I have ever seen in one place for the renewal of their vows.
Beautiful church inside, lovely statue's, old style candle holders. When the sunshine in morning, it lights up the alter. Well worth a visit for some private prayer and thought prayer
I visited this church during my independent tour of Dublin and I sincerely think that's worth a visit. It's majestic and impressively tall, with a neoclassical-ish style that I personally love. It's free and you can visit it even just as a tourist.
Huge cavern hall. Not as well known as other cathedrals in Dublin. But worth a quick stop.
I adore the marble status in St Mary's Pro-Catherdral, which depict the various aspects of the life of Cardinal Paul Cullen, the first Irishman to be made cardinal by Thomas Farrell in 1881: tending the ills, weak and poor, educating and training priests etc. The texture of marble allows us to clearly vision how people were like in 150 years ago: their facial expressions, guestures, hairstyles, the folds and flows of their clothes, the proportion of their physique... the gentle glow of light through reflects on the statues, as if you can feel the warmth eminating from their bodies. When you gaze at them long enough, you might mistaken them breathing in the slow changing of daylight. If you would like a moment of quietness just 5 mins away from the noises of the O'Connell Street, this is a great place to enjoy a moment of peace.
Fantastic. A brilliant experience with beautiful singing and beautiful Mass. I love getting Mass hear
This is a catholic cathedral just off O'Connell Street. It is well worth a visit and has been in Dublin a long time. The public can go in here any time it is open, to go to mass, say a prayer, light a candle. It is a beautiful place. A word of advice if you are a tourist, there are sometimes people begging outside, so be mindful of your wallet/purse. Recently Pope Francis visited the Cathedral.
