The Spire of Dublin in Ireland

And for our series on Stainless Steel Spotlight, we feature today one of the tallest stainless steel monuments in the world: The Spire of Dublin, or alternatively called "The Monument of Light," located at the heart of Dublin, Ireland.

The Spire is 120 meters tall, 3 meters in diameter at the base, tapering to a point at the pinnacle, and is fabricated from shot-peened stainless steel.

It serves as a symbol of Dublin's resilience and progress, standing tall as a testament to the city's spirit. Over the years, the Spire has become an integral part of Dublin's identity, instilling a sense of civic pride in its residents.

Created by Ian Ritchie Architects, the Spire was inspired by the ever-changing light and composition of the Irish skies and was completed in 2003 in celebration of Ireland’s confident future in the third millennium.
