The Parish of St. Michael began in 1829. Sadly in 1965 it was destroyed by fire. This beautiful new church was opened in 1973. |
Inside the church there are some beautiful pictures. This one is by Peter Cassidy. Stained glass windows let in beautifully coloured light. |

The first commuter rail service in the world ran from Westland Row, now called Pearse Station to Dun Laoghaire, or Kingstown as it was known then. |
You can still see the old ticket office on the south bound platform. |
