Michael Collins House

On this day August 28th 1922, six days after being killed in an ambush at Beál na Bláth, Michael Collins was laid to rest.

A reported 500,000, one fifth of the country’s population at the time, lined the streets and paid their respects to ‘The Big Fella’ in what would be the largest attendance to a state funeral in Irish history.

See below a birdseye view of Sackville St. (O’Connell St.) Dublin as the funeral procession made its way from the Pro Cathedral, Dublin where Collins lay in state to Glasnevin Cemetery where Collins would be buried. (Credit: National Library of Ireland)
