Christ Church Cathedral
Imponente catedral medieval que incluye una cripta en su interior
Description of the place
The Cathedral of the Holy Trinity Christ Church Cathedral, founded in 1030, is Dublin's oldest cathedral and one of the city's medieval gems. Its imposing Gothic architecture and ancient history make it a must-see.
One of its greatest treasures is underground: a 12th-century underground crypt, believed to be the oldest building in use in Ireland. It houses religious relics, historical treasures and exhibitions on the history of the church in Dublin.
Curiosity: The most photographed corner of the crypt is a display case with Tom and Jerry, a cat and a mouse that were accidentally mummified and became one of the most unusual attractions in the place.
Un muy buen plan puede ser visitar el combo Catedral de Cristo + Dublinia que es el museo de los vikingos, ambos están comunicados por un puente!

Author's opinion
Un auténtico ícono de Dublín esta milenaria catedral. La decoración del interior es espectacular y lo mejor de todo sin duda para mí es la cripta, por su gran estado de conservación y los objetos que allí se encuentran, incluído el corazón momificado del mismísimo arzobispo que ayudó a construir la catedral. Vale la pena su visita.
