Christ Church Cathedral, Christchurch Place, Dublin 8, Ireland
Description
Standing on high ground in the oldest part of the city, this cathedral is one of Dublin's finest historic buildings. It dates back to 1038 when Sitric, the then Danish king of Dublin, built the first wood here. In 1171 the original simple foundation was extended into a cruciform and rebuilt in stone by Strongbow, although the present structure dates mainly from 1871 to 1878 when a huge restoration was undertaken. Only the transepts, the crypt, and a few other portions date from the medieval times. Highlights of the interior include magnificent stonework and graceful pointed arches, with delicately chiselled supporting columns. Strongbow himself is among the historic figures buried in the church, as is archbishop Browne, the first Protestant to occupy the church, during the reign of the English King Henry 8th. It is the mother church for the Diocese of Dublin and Glendalough of the Church of Ireland.

Puerta de Cordoba
Description
La Puerta de Córdoba fue construida por los romanos en el siglo I, y constituía no sólo una puerta de carácter defensivo, sino incluso propagandístico. En la Puerta de Córdoba se pueden apreciar las huellas de las diferentes culturas que en Carmona se han establecido con el paso de la historia. Durante la época de los Reyes Católicos la Puerta perdió su primigenia función defensiva y, con ello, su austero aspecto militar, tomando una función fiscalizadora de los productos elaborados fuera de las murallas, ejerciendo en la práctica como una aduana y adquiriendo, por tanto, una arquitectura civil. En las últimas investigaciones arqueológicas, realizadas con carácter previo a la restauración, se ha descubierto que posee dos puertas pequeñas, a cada lado de la principal, que se cegaron en el siglo II, a causa de la inestabilidad política, encontrándose actualmente en el interior de las casas adosadas, lo que la convierte en la única puerta romana de tres arcos, de carácter defensivo, que existe en la península ibérica. En el siglo XVI se le hicieron reformas renacentistas y a principios del siglo XVII se acordó colocar hermosos motivos ornamentales, como escudos y estatuas de mármol, hoy en día perdidas, que dignificaron la Puerta. El aspecto barroco se le confirió en época de Carlos II, con las reformas de 1688, y por ello también se la conoce como Puerta de carlos II.

Während der Revolution von 1830 brannten der Nord- und der Ost-Flügel ab, woraufhin man den Entschluss fasste, eine neue Residenz auf den Mauern der alten zu errichten. Das Modell entstand 2007 für eine Arbiet im Fach Architekturtheorie.
