Blarney Woollen Mills: Dublin Store
No trip to Ireland is complete without a visit to the legendary
Blarney Woollen Mills. With five stores across Ireland, including
the successful Dublin location right in the heart of the city
centre, Blarney Woollen Mills offers the essential Irish shopping
experience.
Established in 1823, Blarney Woollen Mills in Co. Cork provided
valuable employment to the locals, producing tweeds and woollens
for the home and export markets. After a period of decline, the Mill
was forced to close in 1973 leaving a void in the village.
A former employee named Christy Kelleher decided he would
buy the buildings he had worked in as a boy and turn the Mill
into a Visitor Centre. Between them, his family raised the funds
to purchase the Mill and persuaded the banks to support his
venture. Christy Kelleher was now the proud owner of the Woollen
Mills where he had started his working life at the age of 13 as an
apprentice machinist.
Today, Blarney Woollen Mills houses the largest selection of Irish
Products in the world and is renowned for its exceptional quality.
With an unrivalled selection of Sweaters and Woollens, Crystal and China, Gifts and
Souvenirs for all the family, this famous store has something for everyone.
Christy Kelleher, this great man of vision, died in 1991 aged 76. He left behind him a
thriving family company which still retains that ‘Blarney spirit’ that made it all possible.
A visit to Blarney Woollen Mills, Nassau Street is a ‘must do’ when in
Dublin, and we look forward to welcoming you.
