Description:The history of St James’s Hospital stretches back to 1703 when an act was passed to build a workhouse on its site. Later a foundling hospital was added to the workhouse.

In 1971 three of the oldest voluntary hospitals in Dublin amalgamated with St Kevin’s to form St James’s Hospital. In little time, St James’s Hospital became the largest teaching hospital in Ireland.
