An historic Irish landmark.

The Four Courts is Ireland's most prominent courts building, located on Inns Quay in Dublin. The Four Courts is the principal seat of the Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal, the High Court and the Dublin Circuit Court.

On 16th April 1922, 200 Anti-Treaty IRA under Rory O'Connor occupied the Four Courts. Under increasing pressure from Britain, the Free State forces accepted two artillery guns and began shelling the building on 28th June. Two days later a large explosion destroyed the building, leading to the surrender of the garrison.
