Today we had the pleasure of launching Medieval Dublin XX, the 20th volume of the proceedings of our symposia. A great occasion to celebrate everyone who made it possible, thanks especially to Four Courts Press, Seán Duffy as editor, the authors, and DCC for their continued support

Wow, what a day. Over 100 people braved the weather to hear fascinating talks about medieval Dublin. Our thanks to TCD and DCC for their continued support, and of course everyone for engaging with the Friends. Watch this space for more events! @historytcd.bsky.social @dublincityheritage.bsky.social

And we’re off!

Looking for somewhere to weather the storm? Join us tomorrow for our annual symposium, which will feature new research on Dublin’s rich medieval past. The event is free and no registration is required! @historytcd.bsky.social @dubcitycouncil.bsky.social

Our colleagues Lynn Kilgallon and @jmarshallmed.bsky.social will be presenting at tomorrow's 26th @fmdmedievaldublin.bsky.social Symposium as part of the Dublin Festival of History.
