Parliament House (Irish: Tithe na Parlaiminte) is a building on College Green in Dublin which housed the Parliament of Ireland from the building's completion in the 1730s until the parliament's abolition under the Acts of Union 1800. The building has been owned by the Bank of Ireland since 1803 and served as its head office until the 1970s.
It was architecturally influential as the world's first purpose-built bicameral parliament house.
