Founded in 1707, Marsh’s Library holds some 25000 books and 300 manuscripts. Narcissus Marsh, Archbishop of Dublin, donated many of the books in the library from his personal collection, and is buried nearby on the Cathedral grounds. The library has seen much of Dublin’s history. In some of the bookcases, there are bullet holes from the Easter Rising. A unique feature that still stands is the three wired alcoves, or “cages,” which were created in the late 18th century in response to thefts at the library. Readers would have to be locked inside to peruse the rarest books.
