Thursday 15th 2016 - visit to Collins Barracks

Collins Barracks is a museum about Irish history, it was the headquarters
of the British soldiers first and then of the Irish army in Dublin after 1922,
when the Irish Free State was established.
Especially interesting are the sections about the wars the Irish soldiers fought in the history,
WWI (alongside the British)  and the War of Independence (1916) against the British Rule,
to obtain Home Rule. Uniforms, tanks, airplanes documents are on disply,to show
sacrifices and suffering wars always brings with them.
