	Kilmainham Gaol - Dublin - Ireland
		Perhaps Kilmainham Gaol’s most famous occupant was Eamon de Valera, the future president of Ireland, released July 16, 1924, shortly before the gaol was closed permanently.
		Kilmainham Gaol is most famously remembered as the place where the fourteen leaders of the Easter Rising of 1916 were executed.
		If Kilmainham Gaol seems to look slightly familiar, it may be because of its appearance in several films, including Michael Collins and the 1966 English version of The Italian Job.
