Collins Barracks is the oldest inhabited barracks in Europe and Ireland's largest. Erected in 1701 to the designs of Thomas Burgh, this is the second-earliest public building existing in Dublin. Reorganisation of the armed forces led to a decision in 1988 to close the barracks and, in 1994, they were completely renovated and restored to become the National Museum of Decorative Arts and History.
