Poolbeg Chimneys / Pigeon House Hoodie - Organic cotton.
Where to find Poolbeg Chimneys?
Rising high above the Dublin skyline, the Poolbeg Chimneys have become an unmissable part of the city's identity. These twin chimneys belong to the Poolbeg Generating Station, located in the Ringsend area. Standing at over 207 meters tall, they're among the tallest structures in Ireland and can be seen from various parts of Dublin, serving as a navigation landmark for ships and airplanes alike. With one tower built in 1967 and the other in 1977, the chimneys have been inactive since 2010, but their imposing presence continues to captivate locals and visitors, becoming a symbol of Dublin's industrial past.
Why is it called the Pigeon House?
The area around the Poolbeg Chimneys and Lighthouse is steeped in history, once home to the Pigeon House Fort and later the Pigeon House Hotel. And so locally, people knew it as,"Pigeon House," a term still fondly used by Dubliners today.
