The interior, which has changed little since Victorian times, still has its original organ. Another notable artefact is the Penitant’s Desk, commissioned in 1724 and used for public confession. Below the church burial vaults containing the mummified remains of many of Dublin’s most influential families from 1600 to 1800. The death mask of Wolfe Tone and the coffins of the 1798 rebels John and Henry Shears.
