On the last day in Dublin, Corações ao Vento visited the Dublin's Writers Museum.
A place of literature and culture.
The Irish literary tradition is one of the most illustrious in the
world, famous for four Nobel Prize winners and for many other writers of
international renown.
In 1991, the Dublin Writers Museum was opened to house a history and celebration of literary Dublin.
There we left a pinwheel at the garden, near Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill.

Merrion Square
Our last stop was at Merrion Square, where You can admire a statue of the famous irish writer Oscar Wilde.
There we left a Pinwheel.
The sculpture of Wilde was commissioned in 1997 by the Guinness Ireland Group (yes, that Guinness) to commemorate one of Ireland’s most famous sons. A site in Merrion Square Park was chosen, and now the stone Wilde, in relaxed repose, looks straight out at his boyhood home where he grew up.

Guinness Storehouse
Today, Corações ao Vento visited Guinness Storehouse.
Located in the heart of the legendary St. James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin, this production site has been home to the Guinness Brewery since 1759, when Arthur Guinness signed a lease for 9,000 years. The Guinness Storehouse building dates back to 1904 and is built in the style of the Chicago School of Architecture. It was once the fermentation plant of the brewery and is now a seven-storey visitor experience dedicated to the history of the making of this world famous beer.
We left a pinwheel on the 4th floor:

Christ Church Cathedral
Today Corações ao Vento visited the Christ Church Cathedral.
Dublin’s oldest building and spiritual heart of the city, Christ Church Cathedral was founded in 1030 by King Sitriuc Silkbeard and Dunan, the first Bishop of Dublin. The most historic building and arguably one of the most important in terms of its rich cultural significance, Christ Church Cathedral is a must-visit when you’re in the city.
