Architectural Resemblance: The White house and the Leinster house

The Leinster House in Dublin


The Leinster House in dublin,Ireland was built in 1745-47 by Architect Richard Cassels.


 The Leinster House, originally named as the Kildare House, began as a home for James Fitzgerald, the Earl of Kildare. Fitzgerald wanted a mansion that would reflect his importance in Irish society. So Fitzgerald and his German-born architect, Richard Cassels, built the Georgian manor.

 America declared its independence from Britain in 1776 and in the same year Fitzgerald became the Duke of Leinster. Fitzgerald's home was renamed the Leinster House. Leinster House was greatly admired and became a model for many other important buildings. It's likely that James Hoban, who studied in Dublin, created his prize-winning plans for America's White House in Washington, DC based on Leinster house design.

 The Leinster House has now become the seat of the Irish Parliament and is also said to be an architectural twin of America's presidential home.
