Easter Rising: Google launches 1916 interactive virtual tour

Back to all news

Google has launched an interactive virtual tour of Dublin to commemorate 100 years since the Easter Rising.

Narrated by actor Colin Farrell, Dublin Rising 1916–2016 allows users to explore the city and view a number of audio and video pieces.

The project was created in collaboration with Ireland 2016, with input from archivists and historians.

The National Library of Ireland, the Military Archives and the Abbey Theatre contributed materials to the project.
