iSpySculpture takes you on a tour of Dublin’s rich collection of public art. Meet the many and varied characters who have made Dublin the historic and vibrant city it is today - James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Arthur Guinness, Philip Lynnott and many more. Find a tribute to Father Ted (Dermot Morgan) in Merrion Square and a present from Germany in Stephen’s Green. Share the anguish of famine victims waiting on the quayside for the emigrant ship. Meet the builder of Ireland’s first railway (nowadays the DART commuter line).
Create your own sculpture trail with maps and directions to guide you right to the spot. Features a range of sculptures from modern works by international artists to classical 19th century pieces. For locals and visitors alike, includes 50 sculptures with stunning photographs, details and background story.
All sculptures are within a 1km radius of Dublin city centre.
