Brian Boru, High King of Ireland - and the Chapel Royal at Dublin Castle.

High King Brian Boru (d.1014) was the founder of the O’Brien Dynasty in Ireland - and is reputed to have defeated the Vikings at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014 - effectively ending two Centuries of Viking raids and partial occupation of Ireland.

There is a bust statue of Brian Boru, High King of Ireland - above and left of the east entrance doorway of the Chapel Royal at Dublin Castle.

Brian Boru, High King of Ireland - and the Rock of Cashel (Carraig Phádraig).

Brian Boru was King of Munster (978-1014) and High King of Ireland (1002-1014).

The Rock of Cashel was the former seat of the Kings of Munster and is where Brian Boru was crowned High King of Ireland in 1002. In 1101 Brian Boru’s Great-Grandson - Murtaugh O'Brien, King of Munster & High King of Ireland (Muircheartach Ua Briain) (d.1119) - gifted the fortress on the Rock of Cashel to the Catholic Church. The fortress was rebuilt as a Cathedral.

There is a modern statue of Brian Boru at the base of the Rock of Cashel.
