Today Welcome to Ireland takes you to place where everything happened, the GPO (General Post Office), imposing building constructed in Georgian style in the central area of Dublin, on O'Connell Street.
The exhibition is called GPO Witness History.

No começo da exposição é dada um bom embasamento histórico da época em que a Irlanda estava inserida em 1916.
No começo do século 20, a Irlanda vivia um período de retomada da suas raízes, idioma, literatura, arte e esportes. Isso fez com com que despertasse nos irlandeses um grande sentimento de identidade. Nessa época foram criadas por exemplo o Irish Literature Theatre e Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA).

On the beginning of the exhibition is given a good foundation of the time Ireland was inserted in 1916.
On the beginning of the 20th century, Ireland lived a period of repossession of its roots, language, literature art and sports. This made an awakening on the Irish of a great identity feeling. On this time were created, for instance, the Irish Literature Theatre and the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA).

O contra ataque britânico não demorou a aparecer, o prédio ficou em chamas e em ruínas. Os líderes conseguiram fugir por alguns túneis, mas não resistiram por muito tempo e se renderam 6 dias após o inicio do Levante.

The British counter attack didn't take long to happen, the building was in flames and ruins. The leaders managed to escape through some tunnels but didn't resist for long and surrendered 6 days after the beginning of the Rising.
