Ala Dargan
The Dargan Wing is the original building of the National Gallery of Ireland, completed in 1864 and named after William Dargan, the railway magnate whose statue still stands at the entrance. It remains the oldest part of the gallery and underwent extensive renovation between 2011 and 2017. Visit to see this carefully restored Victorian structure and its important art collections.
Ala de Milltown
The Milltown Wing is the second of four wings comprising the National Gallery of Ireland, completed and opened in 1903. It takes its name from the Dowager Countess of Milltown's donation in 1897, which included paintings, sculptures, furniture and silver objects from Russborough House. The wing was built specifically to house this extraordinary bequest, which forms one of the gallery's most significant collections.
Ala Beit
The Beit Wing is an extension of the National Gallery of Ireland's main complex, opened in 1968 and designed by Frank DuBerry of the Office of Public Works. It takes its name from Alfred Beit, whose substantial donation of masterpieces in 1987 significantly enriched the gallery's collection. Visit to see what to see across this important addition to Dublin's cultural landscape.
Vaughan Turner Watercolour Collection
The Vaughan Turner Watercolours Collection is a free annual exhibition showcasing the watercolours of J.M.W. Turner.

A essential visit for those interested in British landscape painting and Turner's mastery of light and atmosphere.
