Before and after, Anti-English Irish uprising, Dublin, May 1916. The Hotel Metropole and the Post Office before and after being blown up by the rebels. The GPO building in Dublins O Connell Street became the focal point of the 1916 Easter Sunday Rising after it was occupied by a band of republicans. Their proclamation of an Irish Republic resulted in the British bombarding the GPO and O Connell Street with artillery to force the rebels from the building. The rebellion on was organised by the Irish Republican Brotherhood, a descendent of the Fenians, Although it failed, the rising resulted in great propaganda for the Republican cause when the British executed its leaders
