The group went on a tour of the Freemason’s. The Freemason’s Hall is on Molesworth St and is the only purpose-built Masonic meeting place in Dublin. It was the first permanent home of the Freemasonry in Ireland.

The group visited a variety of rooms which were decorated in different styles e.g. Egyptian and Middle Eastern. The tour guide explained the variety of rituals performed in each room during their meetings.

The group found the tour very informative and interesting and the tour guide was a fount of knowledge. Unfortunately, the lift is currently broken and the tour itself involves a lot of steps which some of the group found difficult.

A truly wonderful exotic building well worth a visit. There is a coffee shop on the ground floor which is open most days which may be worth another visit on a different occasion.
