In addition to having found a refuge from the Irish rain, we were able to enjoy the stories and anecdotes of the Church and the city of Dublin led by Benedetta. Very interesting and she was very helpful to give us advice to fully enjoy the city. Highly recommended! All for free!!!

Lovely church I stumbled upon by chance. Paula gave me a great overview of the history of the church and wider city. Beautiful church and well worth a visit! There is also a "lucky stone" you can touch which is fun!

What an unexpected surprise! Coming upon St Audoen's was divine! OPW, specifically Paula, was a fountain of historical information that kept me captivated for an hour. It is a small church, but it is big on historical significance and fascinating. Highly recommend making a stop to have a master class on the “many yesterday’s” the church has had.

Yes! I so enjoyed my trip here. A must when visiting Dublin! It is such a great mixture of old and newer history that is preserved so well. What made it even better was the sweet staff that were so knowledgeable.

Randomly looking for something to visit we entered St. Audoen’s Church and we’ve been instantly greeted by the staff, especially one of whom, Benedetta, that guided us for a very nice and thorough tour of the church, explaining us everything, from the early beginnings of Ireland to the use of the church nowadays. Also, she has been very helpful also for our planning of the trip, suggesting us where we could eat or visit! A very nice experience in few words that we recommend.

Drawn to look inside St Audoen's by the sound of bells pealing in its castle -like tower, Bernadetta, one of the visitor team, showed me round and, taking a real interest when I said I was a bell ringer at home, explained three of the bells were the oldest in Ireland having been cast in 1423. They still sounded great 601 years later. She was as keen to learn a bit about ringing as to share her knowledge about Dublin's oldest church and its key features in the limited time I had. I really appreciated her enthusiasm in understanding its history and bringing it to life for me, as well as giving me advice about catching the airport bus. I was only sorry I didn't have more than one day in Dublin and felt lucky to have met Bernadetta and include her among the friendly welcoming people I met in Ireland.

As a Dubliner returning after many years, I was delighted to see Audoen's open for visits. The OPW has done a fine job in developing the site. Bernadetta (I hope I got the name right) was a fantastic ambassador for the organisation. I usually prefer to visit without a guide, but I needed some clarification on a few issues. She was very erudite and explained perfectly what I needed to know. St Audoen's has a special place in my heart. My Mother and Father were married there back in 1941. It was great to stand in the still used Church of Ireland church and say a silent prayer for my parents.

It's a fantastic experience in the heart of Dublin, and it's free! You can hardly say the same about Christ Church or Saint Patricks Cathedral. Both of those are good experiences but they'll take your money and, at least in my experience, leave you none the wiser. Saint Audeon's was a suprise. It's not just about the church. It's not just about Dublin's religious history. It's the history of Dublin as many Dubliners themselves hardly know it. I came away feeling like I stumbled upon a gem. Paula was absolutely brilliant. She patiently walked me threw centuries of my own city's history that I was suprised by how little I knew. There was no question she couldn't answer, and she even gave me some book recommendations to follow up. Well worth your time! More so than some of the better known cathedrals!

Paid a visit to St Audoen's today with my Grandson. So glad we did what a beautiful church in the heart of Dublin most people pass by without knowing it's history well worth a visit for locals and visitors. Thanks to Paula for takeing time to explain it's history to us 10/10

This is truly a shining jewel in the city center, a place full of history. I took my students to visit, and the staff were simply amazing. They were very helpful, clear, and patient with the students. We enjoyed it a lot.
