Hey everyone. We are currently walking trough the Glasnevin Cemetery just outside of Dublin, it’s about 20 minutes outside of Dublin. This is probably one of the prettiest cemeteries I have ever seen and having been to 50 something countries, that’s a pretty big feat.

There’s one and a half million people buried here, 1.5 million people for a country that only has 4.5 million that’s pretty impressive. Thought we’d show you some of the cool stuff here at the cemetery. Let’s see if I can some video for you.

What we’re looking at right here is actually the tomb of the cardinal who built the church. He was very, very well regarded, built this church that we’re looking at here. This church in current day dollars would cost around nine million euros. You can tell the carvings are pretty intricate. If you can see of there in the background, see if we can get it right there. Got little tiny heads of all the different cardinals that were originally here or the different heads of church. They’ve done an excellent job actually planting gardens all the way through the cemetery as you can see. The smell is absolutely amazing here, they’ve got lilacs growing, they’ve got tons and tons and tons of flowers you can see of in the background there.

This cemetery has the largest collection of Celtic crosses in the world apparently. I don’t know if you guys can see that. See if we can get you guys some zoomed in shots here. This place is massive. Literally, there’s a wall that goes around the cemetery and they have all of the graves labeled with an “A” and then another letter, like an “AG” for example and then numbers from 1-200 across the plots. That’s the only way to find whoever is buried in this lovely cemetery. At this place you can call for a grave inquiry. 

Absolutely lovely. I’m sure we’ll be back to go roam around the cemetery here in a little bit but wanted to get you guys a view of this absolutely lovely and amazing place. So, I’ll see you guys in a little bit.
