A place of myths and legends, where creativity and opportunity lie around every corner. A place in flux, rebuilding and recreating itself. A place on the edge of the city but in the heart of the community. Shedding misconceptions and building a new future. This is Ballymun.

This walking tour takes us to a place where myths and reality meet. A place on the precipice. A world of Irish heroes, tradition and reflection. Whether you can be in Ballymun or are listening in Budapest, this tour tries to capture the spirit of Ballymun. Disappearing Ballymun is a self-guided tour through the ever-changing landscape of one of Dublin's most famous urban towns.

The walking tour takes approx 11 minutes and begins at Ballymun Library, ending at Ballymun Plaza. Disappearing Ballymun can also be listened to at home as a virtual tour experience.
