Have you ever heard about the gay brothel in Rathmines that threatened to topple the British Monarchy? Did you know there was a lesbian couple on Belgrave Road who fought for women’s suffrage, ran field hospitals during the 1916 Rising and later founded an infants hospital? And what about the quiet leafy park that was one of the busiest gay cruising spots in Dublin? - Oh, the scandals these streets could tell. Join us on a walking tour of Ranelagh and Rathmines, to find out about the hidden histories of the queer characters that made it the colourful place that it is today.
The tour will take place at:
