    There is a lot of evidence of Herr Hitler's visits. St Anne's Cathedral (see note) is not yet repaired - " ... In 1941 the cathedral was almost destroyed by a German bomb, which caused extensive damage to surrounding properties.[2] In 1955 work began on the construction of the ambulatory, at the east end of the cathedral. This work was dedicated in 1959, but it was not for another ten years that it was possible to begin work on the north and south transepts. The Troubles and inflation led to long delays and major problems with the financing of this work. ..."

    Built in the mid-1890s for the Girls Friendly Society of Ireland, it was originally known as the "House of Rest" and served as a home of rest for "sick and weary members".
    The society received Royal permission to name it the Queen Victoria Home in 1901.
