The Courtyard - Surround yourself in the sublime

At the heart of The Royal Hospital Kilmainham is the spectacular courtyard. With cobblestones, cut stone cloisters, clock tower and Juliet balconies, there’s nowhere else like it in Ireland. And it’s yours, if you’d like it, to host an unforgettable event in a marquee right in the middle. Talk to us and we’ll help to plan it all out with you.
If you wish to erect a marquee, this must be hired externally and separately.

The Formal Gardens

The RHK is graced by the presence of an early 17th-century formal walled garden. The Formal Gardens is a tranquil arboretum for visitors of the RHK to explore. This 17th century landscape features bespoke garden characteristics, such as topiary, ornamentation, a grand fountain, historic walls and art installations. Its unique landscape encompasses many enchanting elements, which often lends itself to clients for an abundance of photography opportunities.
