An 1890s photochrom print of Dún Laoghaire (then known as Kingstown), a suburban seaside town and county town of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County, in Ireland. A major port of entry from Great Britain, the town is situated about 12 km (7.5 mi) south of Dublin city centre. The town's name derives from a fort ("Dún" in Irish) built by Laoghaire, a 5th century High King of Ireland.Image: Detroit Publishing Co.; Restoration: A. Cuerden
