Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin, Ireland, sometimes referred to as the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity or Christ Church,is the oldest of Dublin's medieval cathedrals.

The seat of both the Church of Ireland and the Roman Catholic Church in Dublin, it was built in 1038 by King Sitric Silkenbeard, the Danish Viking King of Dublin.

The building was decaying and therefore renovated in Victorian times by George Edmund Street, and again in modern times between 1980 and 1982. After the extensive renovation during Victorian times, it is hard to tell which parts of the interior were kept to medieval standards and which are Victorian embellishments.
