A Must See if you're visiting Dublin

The Marsh Library is a hidden gem, a beautiful historic library with hidden courtyard garden, where you can sit and enjoy the flowers, shrubs and trees. An eighteenth century library which retains its original features including bookcases and seating. Originally opening to the public in 1707. Today it remains a working library with a reading room on the ground floor, but it also opens its first floor galleries to visitors. Please be aware that unfortunately the library and garden are not step free. I walk with a crutch and I took my time, and found the steps manageable.
