The interior of the
Chapel Royal
in
Dublin Castle
(view in
360° panoramic viewer
), which has been called one of the finest
Gothic Revival
interiors in Ireland. Designed by
Francis Johnston
and constructed over a period of seven years, this was the official
Church of Ireland
chapel of the Household of the
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland
from 1814 until the creation of the
Irish Free State
in 1922. In 1943, after years of disuse, it was acquired by the
Irish Army
and made a
Catholic church
. It has been
deconsecrated
since 2015.
