Designed in 1814 in Neo-Classical style by Francis Johnston, the GPO is one of the city’s most imposing buildings. It was the centre of the aborted Easter Rising in 1916 and the scars of gunfire can still be seen on the Ionic portico. The history of this event can be seen in a sequence of paintings in the foyer by Irish artist Norman Teeling.
