from Ireland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Hundreds turned out at Glasnevin Cemetery for the annual Collins Griffith Commemoration, a century-old tradition that endured even through the pandemic and remains deeply cherished. The moving ceremony — complete with flag raising, piping, wreath-laying, and the Last Post — honored Ireland’s founding figures as public, military, and academic leaders gathered to pay tribute. This year, a historic armored car from Michael Collins’ final convoy was unveiled, set to play a starring role in next year’s commemorations. With speeches from top voices like Professor Laffan and Senator McDowell, the event reaffirmed how vital Collins and Griffith remain in Ireland’s national memory.
