Donal Fallon’s Tour of Mount Jerome Cemetery

Name: Donal Fallon’s Tour of Mount Jerome Cemetery
Start: 2026-10-25T10:00:00+00:00
Location: Mount Jerome Cemetery

What to expect

If Glasnevin Cemetery tells the story of Irish Independence, then Mount Jerome is the cemetery that captures Dublin’s Victorian Age.

Historian, author and host of the popular Three Castles Burning podcast, Donal Fallon leads this specially-commissioned walking tour through one of Dublin’s most enduring square miles: the eternal home of one of the finest collections of Victorian memorials, tombs, vaults and crypts in Ireland.

Amidst the headstones, you’ll encounter important names in the Irish supernatural tradition, including William Wilde and Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and hear about their connections to Bram Stoker and the Dublin of his time.

A firm favourite of the festival, this tour sells out every year. As Mount Jerome is a working cemetery, the tour takes place on Sunday only, making places very, very limited. Early booking is strongly advised.
