Its original function was preserved and an Interpretative Centre telling the life-story of Dr. Douglas Hyde (1860-1949) was installed. Dr. Hyde&#8217;s contribution to modern Ireland is highlighted in the exhibition by the use of informative charts, maps and photographs. Through audio-visual material you can capture the spirit of his dream and celebrate the achievements of one life dedicated to one vision.<\/p>\n<p>Also on display is the original letter nominating him as first President of Ireland, signed by members of the two main political parties in D\u00e1il \u00c9ireann &#8211; Fianna F\u00e1il and Fine Gael &#8211; along with many other items of historical interest.<\/p>\n<p>The grounds of the building have been tastefully landscaped and include Garden an Chraoibh\u00edn.
