Ireland Old Library at Trinity College, Dublin

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
The Long Hall at Trinity College is probably one of the most beautiful architectural interiors. The library also houses the Book of Kells which in itself is a reason to visit. You must buy a ticket for the Book of Kells which includes the Old Library.

Photography Tips

The spot is usually very crowded with tourists. If you want a picture without other people, be there in the morning when The Book of Kells opens. Get there early and be the first in line... skip the Book of Kells exhibit and go directly to the Long Hall. Be prepared to potentially use a higher ISO to keep exposure time down to prevent blur because no tripods are allowed in the library.

Travel Information

Probably the best option to get to this place in Dublin is by using the train. There are multiple stations around with just a few minutes to walk. Alternatively, you can use a cab from anywhere in Dublin.

Hi Michael... Sorry for the late reply to this, I have been in Germany for the last few weeks and am just getting back home. I can confirm that tripods were not allowed inside the library. As to the crowd size, I went in the middle of the day and found a steady flow of people to the point that I wasn't able to get a clean shot of the entire library. This shot here is elevated above the heads of the others for that reason. Best of luck and enjoy!
