Become an Archive
Benefactor

The Irish Architectural Archive was established in 1976 to collect and preserve material of every kind relating to the architecture of the entire island of Ireland, and make it available to the public.

Part buildings record, part drawings collection, the IAA is a vital, free, information resource for working architects. Architecture is an expression of national culture and the holdings of the IAA embody the centrality of architects to the shaping of Ireland’s past, present and future.

Become an IAA Benefactor and know that your generosity will help us to curate, preserve and grow our collections and sustain our outreach and exhibitions programmes, and our services to architects, practices and researchers. Donations can qualify for tax relief.

You can donate by cheque (payable to the Irish Architectural Archive and sent to the IAA at 45 Merrion Square, Dublin 2), by standing order, or by credit card via PayPal.
