You can still see where the bullets hit the facade of the GPO in O'Connell Street. During the Easter Rising in 1916, the republican volunteers used the GPO as their headquarters. Outside, the police and the army were shooting and lobbing bombs into the building. The interior burned, but the facade remains, bullet holes and all. Inside, it's been rebuilt with beautiful wood, brass and marble -- a grand place to post a letter. There's a little museum about the Easter Rising inside, but we skipped it.
