Trinity launches ‘Trinity Trails’ campus walking tours

Posted on: 21 June 2022

Trinity College Dublin launches Trinity Trails; a new in-person guided and multimedia self-guided walking tours of Trinity.

Trinity launches ‘Trinity Trails’ campus walking tours

Departing from the bell tower (the Campanile) in Trinity’s Front Square, visitors enjoy a 45-minute guided or self-guided loop of the campus, exploring and discovering Trinity’s hidden gems. The Trail completes by The Old Library where visitors can either continue their journey into the Book of Kells and Old Library exhibition, or enjoy lunch or coffee at one of Trinity’s restaurants and cafes.

Over 30 Trinity contributors from 14 schools and departments were involved in developing the content and compelling stories that make Trinity Trails so unique. The cross-campus collaboration included academics, staff, students and researchers who are all passionate about highlighting Trinity’s rich history and heritage across each of their areas of expertise.

Key points of interest along the trail include the Old Anatomy Museum, Museum Building, Rose Garden and Zoological Museum. Visitors who opt for the Self-Guided Tour have access to immersive 360 tours and AR experiences with highlights including engaging with two of the Zoological Museum's most precious artefacts – bringing to life Prince Tom the Royal Elephant or the Great Auk which has been extinct since the 1800s.

Visitors to Trinity can also enjoy affordable overnight stays in the heart of campus with heritage bedrooms available to book throughout the Summer months. Choose from singles, twins, doubles or apartments that sleep up to 6 people, and wake up to a delicious breakfast served in The Buttery café.

Trinity Trails tickets can be booked via  www.tcd.ie/visitors/trinitytrails  and Self-Guided Tours can be accessed by downloading the  Visit Trinity App  available on the Apple and Google store. Rooms are available from €100 per night at  www.tcd.ie/summeraccommodation . Proceeds generated by Trinity Trails and Summer Accommodation are reinvested back into the College to support the academic mission of the university and fund development projects and conservation programmes.

Speaking about Trinity Trails,  Chief Operating Officer, Orla Cunningham, says:

 “From the beginning, this has been a collaborative cross-campus partnership, with over 30 contributors from 14 departments giving so generously of their time and expertise to uncover the hidden gems and deliver the compelling stories that make the Trinity Trails so unique. We are delighted to welcome visitors, alumni and students alike to enjoy the Trinity campus in a way they may never have seen before and discover our 430 years of history and heritage.”

Patrick Wyse Jackson, Head of School of Natural Sciences, Associate Professor of Geology and Curator, Geological Museum says:

“Trinity Trails brings to life the city centre campus of Trinity.  Visitors learn and understand the significance of the evolving architectural heritage of the College, from the iconic Georgian buildings such as the West Front that opens onto cobbled squares to the Victorian Museum Building with its polychromatic columns and naturalistic carvings, and the more recent Business School with a planted exterior green wall. Perhaps more importantly, visitors will comprehend the wide-ranging work of the university over four centuries and the importance that staff, students and alumni have made to global culture, literature and sciences through teaching, learning, research and innovation.”

Trinity College: Top-Ranked Dublin Tour

trinity walking tour

Trinity College , located in the heart of Dublin, is Ireland’s oldest university. It was founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I. The monarch wanted to create an institution in Ireland modeled after Oxford and Cambridge. The iconic university campus appears in movies and novels.

trinity walking tour

Trinity College looms large when I first encountered it during the Christmas season walking down Grafton Street, Dublin’s most prestigious shopping corridor. The university’s tall walls cannot be breached so it feels like a castle more than a college.

Architecture buffs will be drawn to the historic buildings, cobblestone sidewalks, and marble statues stationed on the green. (I also highly recommend touring 14 Henrietta Street , a townhouse-turned-tenement museum, and the James Joyce Centre .)

Rather than skirting the brick wall or simply walking under the ancient front arches and peeking into the green on my daily rambles in the city, I wanted to learn more about Trinity College’s most famous professors, students, and ghosts.

Table of Contents

Trinity Trails

Trinity College offers “Trinity Trails,” a 75-minute guided tour of the campus, seven days a week that includes access to the Old Library and Book of Kells. (Check out my video tour on Instagram.)

trinity walking tour

A ticket costs 29 euros for one adult or 65 euros for a family (two adults and two children). There is also a free self-guided tour. A campus-only tour costs 15 euros.

“Take an immersive guided walking tour through the rich cultural heritage of Trinity College Dublin. Learn about world famous alumni, discover ancient buildings and get an insight in to the cutting-edge innovations of Ireland’s leading University.” Trinity Tours

Trip Advisor Award

In my opinion, this is a must-see Dublin tour. In fact, Trip Advisor honored Trinity University with its 2022 Traveller’s Choice award. It is ranked #7 of 671 things to do in Dublin.

“This is an incredibly pretty school, the grounds and the architecture are amazing. I love beautiful old buildings, Trinity College has some incredible buildings inside and out.” Trip Advisor review

My guide was a former student who now works for the college. “Trinity College was exclusively Protestant until the 1970s. It used to be an old Augustinian monastery. You can still see evidence today. The remains of the monastery are below ground,” she explained.

trinity walking tour

The average age of university buildings ranges from 1780 to 1790. The style is Georgian architecture. But the “oldest” buildings date back to 1702.

For the first three centuries, only male students could enroll at Dublin University All this changed in January 1904 when Marion Weir Johnston, Averina Shegog, and Ellen Tuckey entered Dublin College. They were given full academic status. (We would learn more about a provost who resisted any female student matriculating at Trinity University during our tour!)

Student Life

We learned that students attend “Commons,” which is the dinner meal, which begins precisely at 6:15 p.m. and ends at 7 p.m. Dining is limited to 45 minutes. “You must eat fast,” laughed the guide. Students can also order Guinness beer with this meal because “the Guinness family is a big patron of the university.” In fact, the portrait of the Earl of Guinness hangs in the building.

Trinity College is home to the oldest student societies, including a philosophical society and a historical society. But the former hasn’t run continuously since it was temporarily disbanded due to student hijinks. “The 1730s were a rough decade for the university. There was a strong Jacobite faction James on the throne,” said the guide.

Trinity College Ghost

In fact, drunk students murdered Edward Ford (former student and fellow) in 1734 in Building 25. He lived in the Rubrics, which is Trinity’s oldest building. Ford was disliked by students as “obstinate and ill-judging man” and interfered with student affairs.

The drunk students threw bricks up at his window during the cover of the night. He whipped out a pistol and shot at them through the broken window pane. They returned later with firearms and shot him. He died two hours later.

“It is believed that Ford’s ghost still lingers at his old residency, and he is said to wander around the Rubrics, dressed in wig, gown, and knee breeches.” Trinity News

His ghost reportedly still stalks the hallways of the student dormitory around the doorway of 25. “There are reports of shadowy figures walking the halls. Four students were charged with murder but the judge threw it out. Students told different stories. The university expelled the four students. Students say the room is haunted.”

Haunted Bell Tower

The dormitories aren’t the only place haunted. Students also avoid the university’s Bell Tower (known as the Campanile). It was built in 1852. The legend is a student will fail all their exams if they walk underneath the Campanile as the bell tolls within the tower.

Since the bell rings at irregular intervals, there is no guarantee that a student won’t get caught. “You don’t see students walk under the Bell Tower. They’ll fail all their exams if the bell rings. But students will run under when they graduate,” said the guide. It is considered a mark of triumph over the Curse of the Campanile.

(Hint: You can visit college green without paying for a tour if you want to take an Instagram photo.)

There is one loophole. If the student can reach Provost George Salmon’s statue before the bell stops ringing and touch his foot, he is saved.

Salmon’s Statue

Interestingly, Salmon is the provost who refused to let women matriculate at Dublin College. He vowed no woman would ever study at Trinity. But despite his opposition to female students, women students began attending Dublin College in 1904.

trinity walking tour

“He did great things for the university. He famously said ‘under my dead body will a woman attend this college.’ On the day he died, the first women students entered Dublin University,” said our guide.

Apparently, Salmon is quite famous with current female students who like to show him up. “On graduation day, women line up to take their picture with him,” she added.

Museum Building (Exterior)

I realized that Trinity College is truly a “living museum” when our guide took us to see the Museum Building. You don’t want to miss this structure which is a virtual zoo! We went on a “visual scavenger hunt” trying to identify the sculptures of animals that perched on the structure.

Home to the Geology Department for over 160 years, this Museum Building was built between 1853-1857. Architects Thomas Deane and Benjamin Woodward designed it. Their inspiration was Venice’s Byzantine architecture.

The architects used multiple and contrasting forms of marble, including Calp Limestone and faced with Ballyknockan granite (exterior walls), Portland stone from Dorset (quoins, columns and capitals), and Caen stone from France (tympanum). The college crest sits above the heavy wooden door.

It was no surprise to me when I learned the exterior amounted to just under half the cost for the entire building.

trinity walking tour

I was amazed by the intricate exterior carvings of florals and animals on the building. In fact, John and James O’Shea used fresh flowers to carve their floral leaves and flowers. 

We stood several minutes outside the building trying to identify where the O’Shea brothers hid the animals. 

“The building is like an Aesop fable,” declared the guide. “You’ll see sculptures of cats, monkeys, and foxes.”

Museum Building (Interior)

The fantastical architecture continues inside the Museum Building. I discovered a dinosaur skulking in the lobby. (This building reminded me of the Smithsonian Castle in Washington, DC. It was also constructed in the 1850s. The Norman Revival style of architecture.)

trinity walking tour

When you enter the main entrance hall, you step back into the Victorian age. There are large (Irish) marble pillars, balustrades, and banisters.

trinity walking tour

The domed roof features blue, red, and yellow enameled bricks. At the end of the hall, students and professors must climb two sweeping marble staircases to get to the second floor. Their voices bounce off the canyon-like space.

“This elaborate and much-celebrated historical building is central to Trinity’s campus, a focal point for all students, and represents Geology’s long and rich academic history.” Trinity College

trinity walking tour

Rose Garden

After leaving Deane’s Museum Building, our group meanders down to the Rose Garden. What a lovely place where students can escape after classes or exams.

trinity walking tour

While the rose might be considered special property of Britain, poet William Butler Yeats often incorporated the rose as a symbol for Ireland. 

“Red rose, proud rose…Rose of all my days!” William Butler Yeats

Interestingly, the black rose was a code word for Ireland since English law banned reference to Ireland as a nation.

The green space features benches as well as a velvet lawn for lounging. (Hint: Visitors can also avail themselves of this rest stop since the entrance to Trinity University’s courtyard is free.)

Self-Guided Tour

There is also the option of paying 5 euros to listen to a tour guide on a Trinity University app. It is billed as “perfect for the independent traveler, who wants to experience Trinity’s rich culture and heritage at their own pace.”

This tour features 14 “points of interest” across the campus. It includes a virtual tour, virtual artifacts, and audio commentary by subject matter experts. The Visit Trinity App can be downloaded in the App Store and on Google Play .

Downtown Natchez Alliance now taking applications for façade grants

Published 4:27 pm Friday, June 28, 2024

By Sabrina Simms Robertson

trinity walking tour

NATCHEZ — Building owners and lessors in the Historic Downtown Natchez Main Street District have until an Aug. 2 deadline to apply for grant funds available through the American Rescue Plan Act for balcony, awning, and façade improvements.

A total of $160,000 has been made available for disbursement through the non-profit Downtown Natchez Alliance with the goal of transforming the Natchez cityscape, extending the life of historic downtown buildings and promoting downtown living and tourism.

The program may fund up to 75 percent of approved project costs with property owners expected to match funds with their own.

Email newsletter signup

Eligible projects include the recreation or repair of original balconies; installation or repair of awnings, façade improvements tied to the development of upper floors for residents; or projects that extend the life of historic buildings via structural or masonry stabilization, waterproofing, for or window restoration, professional rehabilitation or painting.

The projects can only be within the Historic Downtown Natchez Main Street District, which extends from the bluff to Orange Avenue and from Madison Street to Orleans Street.

Grant applications will be scored and DNA will decide who shall get the funds, DNA Director Kevin Miers said.

The grants are divided into two portions, $100,000 for balconies and $60,000 for awnings and facades.

Because these are government dollars being used on private businesses, DNA will not be giving anyone checks, Mires said. Rather, the organization will bid out the projects and pay the contractors directly.

For more information about the grant program, email [email protected] or visit natchezdna.org .

Conor O’Brien and Villagers will play a hometown concert on Saturday, June 29th at the Summer Series at Trinity College Dublin .

Over the past 15 years, O’Brien has delivered a series of remarkable albums, both rich in articulate lyrics and musical dexterity, that have won him awards and many admirers across the globe. O’Brien has picked up two Ivor Novello Awards for songwriting, been nominated twice for the Mercury Music Prize and has won the Choice Music Prize for best Irish album.

The most recent album, That Golden Time – his sixth – was described by The Irish Times as “Villagers’ most striking album yet – compact in scope, significant in impact”.

In a recent interview with O’Brien , the singer-songwriter said he wanted to return to a more simple, pure sound, “where you can actually hear the song and the words rather than all the whistles and bells on top of it”. He also said the set list for the current tour will include songs from his back catalogue, stretching as far back as Becoming a Jackal, the Villagers’ debut released in 2010.

Plan and book your return travel arrangements in advance, allowing for at least an extra two hours of travel time to and from the venue. Attendees are encouraged to walk, cycle and use public transport to get to the concert. There will be one entry point at Lincoln Place Gate between Nassau Street and Westland Row, and there will be no entry to the site via the Front Square or Nassau St gates.

By car: There will be no parking facilities provided at the concert site, and since the concert is in Dublin city centre, you may be best off parking elsewhere in the city and using public transport the rest of the way.

By train: Get the Dart to the Pearse Street or Tara Street stations, as they will be running services to and from the concerts each day. If travelling from Connolly/Heuston stations, get the Luas red line to Abbey Street and the green line from there to Dawson Luas stop, or you can walk as it’s about 15 minutes on foot.

By Luas: Trinity College is well serviced by the Luas green line, just get off at Dawson Luas stop and follow the signs to the concert.

By bus: Since you will be heading to a central part of the city, there are many Dublin Buses you can get to bring you within walking distance of the concert site. Routes 11, 37, 38, 38A, 38D, 39, 39A and 70 will bring you to Nassau Street and routes 9, 13, 16, 27, 49, 54a, 56a, 65b, 69, 77a, 83, 122, 123, 150 and 151 will bring you to Dame Street.

There is no accessible parking available for Trinity College, but if you have a blue badge, you can find accessible on street parking here .

What will they play?

Here is the set list from the Villagers’ concert at Royal Festival Hall, London, on June 8th:

  • That Golden Time
  • Truly Alone
  • First Responder
  • Everything I Am Is Yours
  • You Lucky One
  • I Want What I Don’t Need
  • So Simpatico
  • Behind That Curtain
  • Brother Hen
  • Nothing Arrived
  • Becoming a Jackal
  • To Be Counted Among Men
  • A Trick of the Light

What’s the story with security?

This is a strictly over-18s event – ID will be required and anyone under 18 will be refused entry without refund. Allow time for security checks on the way in, and remember Trinity College is a standing-only site. Strict security checks will be in operation, and everyone will be subject to a search permissible under law.

Bags larger than A4 size will not be permitted and all bags may be searched; this can be time-consuming, so consider going bagless for easier entry. There will be no cloakroom or storage facilities. No umbrellas, alcohol, garden furniture, selfie sticks, drones, laser pens, aerosols, smoke and gas canisters, nitrous oxide and any associated equipment, flares, glasses, or cans, among other items, will be allowed into the event. There is no readmission to the concert, so once you leave there’s no getting back in.

Can I take photographs at the concert?

Yes, but only with a smartphone or small camera. Professional cameras with a detachable lens and any other recording equipment are banned.

What’s the weather forecast?

Saturday looks set to be cloudy, with some showers in the afternoon. The evening is expected to be dry, with temperatures of about 18 degrees as the concert gets under way. As this is an outdoor gig, dress appropriately for inclement weather.

– Tunes of the Time will be held Saturday, July 6, at 2 p.m. and Monday, July 8, at 2 p.m. Cost is $6. Life on the 18 th century frontier could be harsh and unpredictable. Many early settlers turned to music as a source of joy and entertainment. Join our museum curator Chad Bogart in the “Gathering Place” of the park Visitor Center for a glimpse into the musical heritage of the colonial frontier. See how music was a part of the everyday lives of colonial Americans and how the melting pot of early America influenced the songs and tunes we still enjoy today.

Join Museum Curator Chad Bogart for a special guided interpretive walk through the grounds of Sycamore Shoals and along portions of the walking path.

Dress appropriately for the weather as a casual stroll will be taken on the walking path and through the park grounds. Portions of the walk will include ground that may not be flat or solid for people with mobility challenges. Visitors will meet in the picnic area adjacent to the Visitors Center for the approximately 90 minute program.

Travis Kelce joins Taylor Swift on stage during Eras Tour show

(Gray News) - Taylor Swift can do it with a broken heart, but she does not have to.

On Sunday, Swift took her relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce to a new level by bringing him on stage during her Eras Tour at London’s Wembley Stadium.

Kelce surprised the crowd and appeared with two of Swift’s dancers wearing a top hat and a black tailcoat during the transition from “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” to “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart.”

The crowd erupted in cheers as he carried Swift in his arms. In other shows, two of Swift’s dancers carry her.

“TRAVIS KELCE HAS OFFICIALLY MADE HIS #TSTheErasTour DEBUT IN #LondonTSTheErasTour !” Taylor Nation, Swift’s official social media team, posted on X , formerly known as Twitter.

Kelce fanned himself and Swift, pretended to touch up her makeup and broke out in some dance moves in the scene.

Before walking away to sing “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart,” Swift turned toward Kelce and blew him a kiss.

Taylor Nation called the moment “The not-so-smallest hard launch that ever lived” on X .

On Monday, Swift mentioned the surprise appearance in an Instagram post that featured photos and video of Kelce’s debut.

“I’m still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav’s Eras Tour debut,” she said in the post .

Over the weekend, Swift and three-time Super Bowl champion also became Instagram official when she posted a photo with him and the British royals at Saturday’s concert.
