St Patrick's Cathedral, Book of Kells, Dublin Castle

Описание: Hello My YouTube Friends,
Hi from Ireland. We are traveling again. In today’s tour we saw some of the best of Dublin where our guide first took us to see St. Patrick’s Cathedral. where we learned about the works of Johnathan Swift, Dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral as well as Bram Stoker, author of Dracula and student of the 16th century Trinity College. We continued with the tour to Dublin Castle. Originally built in the 13th century on a site previously settled by the Vikings it functioned as a military fortress, a prison, treasury, courts of law and the seat of English Administration in Ireland for 700 years. Then we visited the 9th century Book of Kells, described in the 1007 Historical records off Ulster as 'the most precious object in the western world'. The cultural and historical value of the Book of Kells has only increased in the millennium since - this exquisite work of art has stood for 1,200 years as the greatest example of medieval illumination.
