    8 Merrion Square

    Posted by Pat Ruane 12 January 2006

    No 8 Merrion Square is the headquarters of the Institute of Architects. It has a bookshop on the entrance level. The door opens magically in front of you when you walk up to it - just go in and turn left into the reception and say you want to look at the books.

    Often there are architectural exhibitions in the basement level. It's a great way to see the inside of one of the big houses on Merrion Square.

    On the same side of the square, No 45 Merrion Square is the Irish
    Architectural Archive - well worth a visit for anyone interested in
    Irish architecture, and you get to see even more of the interior of an even larger 18th-century Georgian house.
