The Story of Dublin's Ancient Churches | Being Irish in Ireland

- In 1171 the Normans conquered Dublin, ending 300 years of Viking rule. In this video, I'll show you the buildings they constructed soon after their arrival and hopefully make you mad over how badly they've been cared for in the years since.

This is for sure one of the most underrated series on UA-cam! Please continue it some day.
Thank you. At the moment I'm working on a new video in the same genre as the Padraig Flynn one. Being Irish in Ireland as an ongoing thing however is probably done, though it might be fun to revisit it once for a special occasion. Maybe the 100 year anniversary of the founding of the Free State?
Nepotism and Tantacrul sent me. This comment's for the alg to boost the video
Hurray for nepotism
Useless extra comment for the algo
Go algo
ALGOOOOOOOOO!!
Just popping my head in to make sure no one's disrespecting the algo.
That script bit cracked me up. Furthermore: Good job.
Yep brilliant mate. Keep her honest
A very well-made video! I'm one of a very rare breed of Irish of the current generation, as I am still a practicing Catholic. I lament the absolute tragedy of the Dissolution of the Monasteries across Ireland during the reformation, as there are so many beautiful Churches now in ruins, though I am glad of the ones that survived - however still it's painful, as all of the old medieval churches are now in the hands of the Church of Ireland, and most are glorified museums, rather than being used for worship - meaning that a lot of the older Catholic churches date from after emancipation (Beautiful ones all the same, like those designed by Pugin). I understand this is a minority opinion though.
I think the destruction of monasticism in Ireland and England during the alleged reformation is the great crime of Irish history. On a positive note though, the Institute of Christ the King is doing magnificent work restoring an old Jesuit church in Limerick, beautiful place to see.
This is pure dacent.
im so glad I got recommended this channel! keep up the good work
I love all three of these buildings.. i've rung the bells in all three! but love St. Audoen's bells the most.. three of the six bells date from 1423 and are the oldest church bells in Ireland still rung by ringers
The choir from my primary school was invited every January to play in Christchurch. Gorgeous building
I’m from Liverpool and because of Ireland’s heavy influence on Liverpool, I’ve always been dead interested in the history of Ireland. Thanks for the history lesson 👍
Dublin and liverpool accents are very similar all because the one viking king or leader ruled both cities
@@paulgorman3001 I thought it was because a lot of Irish people immigrated to Liverpool over the years (I'm thinking mostly around the 60s I'm not very well versed on this tbh)
@@degeneratemilkhater5696 no pal both our accents are very similar because of viking influences on both citys
Your editing is very good. Hope you begin to release videos more often.
Lovely stuff man! The effort you put in your videos really shows. You have a bright future ahead of you . All the best and good luck.
Really interesting series, love hearing your opinions and views on things especially on Ireland. You are very good at writing scripts and have a good delivery.
One very important information about St Patricks that you missed out on, Johnathon Swift was the Dean there and is buried there, standing up, as he didn't want to be washed away, as there's a river under the cathedral! also, he established St Patricks hospital too!!
No idea why this channel showed up in my recommendations, but I'm glad it did. Top work.
I've been living abroad for a year now, really enjoying your vids
Keep posting mate! This stuff is great
Really great work. Very entertaining!
Excellent video. Really made me laugh and I learnt something. I have forgotten it immediately though which says far more about me than it does about this video.
Nice one Conor!
Brilliant channel
Great vid!
Wonderful stuff
Great stuff, glad to see someone else shares my rather jaundiced view of Irishness and its meaning.
Nice video man, tell everyone about the class churches in Limerick lol
Great channel
Please do an updated version of the past 6 month very funny videos
You are a great writer Sir. You have at least one Kerryman tuning in.
Pretty good video
Thank you, just thankyou.
I like how you tie the conclusion into something powerfully important like destroying our history!
As I child, I protested the building of Wood Quay.
I enjoyed this "Eye on Dublin" - great stuff. I haven't been back since early 90's. Was living in Howth near the church (block of flats), did a "literary" pub crawl on St Paddy's Day, kissed a girl from Sandymount, drank a pint in the last snug in town before it got gentrified, watched the death of Princess DI on RTE that morning in Howth, and overheard an American asking a waiter when he went to pay his bill "what's the direction to Galway?"... from Temple Bar... summing up - LOVED IT ALL! Days of Glenroe (yep - went to the farm 'n' all) and way before the Celtic Tiger... Did you remember the many voting it took to be in the EU?????
More! More! More!
Cheers. There definitely will be more soon.
I was looking this up in Wikipedia articles last month little did I know this video was waiting for me right here
Fun, though I am not sure Brian Boru would have thought Ireland's colonial problems began with Strongbow!
Ah, History. Yesterday, my 24 year old colleague said she'd never heard of the Vietnam war, because it happened before she was born, and abroad. I get she might not have an interest, to have never heard of it? Blimey.
This is class. I’m actually studying medieval Ireland at uni atm. Any chance of us getting a video on Gerald of Wales and how he basically f*cked up the English image of the Irish for centuries?
How the fuck is this channel and video so slept on
rlm reference? man of culture i see
'the year of our lord 2020' oh sweaty you innocent child
This was made in 2020 AD which stands for Anno Domini which means the year of our Lord what's so hard to understand sweaty
For a deeper look into ancient Irish culture and spirituality try macdari Connors 'Irish wisdom preserved in Bible and pyramids'
Thank you for teaching us about your country. You are often overshadowed by the English folk
Thanks, from a dub
How do we support/pay you to make more of these? Start a Patreon, I'm in.
i was 13 when i first saw church= tall ships .
best thing i know about ireland is that the "standard railway gauge" there is like 5 ft 3 inch. in the uk its a wee 1435mm. also 2:00 is that Phil Lynott? i dunno cos i seen rolf harris do better and he did 2 little boys.
No that's not phil lynott. Its Luke Kelly a titan of Irish folk music and one of the founders of The Dubliners.
"It took them so long to build this fucker . . . " man, I can not stop laughing!
I dont think that's actually Strongbows Coffin. It was lost many moons ago.
Let's gooooooooooooooooo
It’s a shame you didn’t discuss the Pro-Cathedral...
Don't complain about urban planning Paddy. Sydney has you beat. Sydney is one of the finest Victorian architectural museums in the world with more rising dam and leaking roofs that you can't touch than anywhere. All this 1900 stock and planning controls causing huge house prices and affordability problems. Yay.
Vikings ruled at Ireland at one point? Fuck that might explain why I'm mostly Nordic with a drop of Irish in me
saint... alduin...?
You sound surprisingly similar to your brother.
I sound pretty different from my brother.
Really? I would have thought my speech would be a bit softer than his.
@@imparter9337 it is softer, I can tell the difference, but it is still very similar.
@@imparter9337 I sort of assumed that was because your brother spends 90% of his videos pissed off with something, while you spend 90% of your videos chilling and chatting shit about being Irish.
A l g o r y t h
Get out of there if you live there
When do Vikings become Norman? Normans Vikings with French accent.
Pity about the bad language. It reduces the standard of this good video.
Oh fuck off
Watch a video about Irish history by an American then. For fucks sake.
I offer this comment to the algorithm gods. The algods, if you will.
I sure hope your name is Conor or else I am seriously not happy with that comment made at the end of the video.
Would love to show to kids man but the cursing is too much.
Love it though man cheers
Yeah, I get that. Future videos will probably have little to no cursing in them.
Ah, I see your City Council ALSO enjoy destroying our shared heritage and history...is this just an Irish coco thing or wha?
It's pernounced audeince r you from Dublin pal in from bullalley iveagh trust
This is just awful, so inaccurate. I gave up after a few minutes.
Dublin stopped being a Viking city in 1016.
Christ Church Cathedral was built originally in 1030, not by the Normans. You can still tell the pre-Norman parts from the round arches of the windows.
If you are this inaccurate from the start the rest couldn't have much credibility.
PanglossDr
In fairness at2:28 he did allude to the round windows as Romanesque as opposed to the Norman gothic,pointy style.I thought it was interesting and a bit of fun, aimed at people who don’t have a PhD in Architecture or History.
@@krehetpi No, either ignorance or lies.

Get over yourself
