St Patrick's Cathedral Dublin Door of Reconciliation

---

St Patrick's Cathedral Dublin, in the Anglican Church of Ireland. North transept, Door of Reconciliation, with a hole cut to allow the feuding Earls of Ormond and Kildare to make peace. Kildare thrust his arm through the door, saying his rivals could either make peace or cut off his arm, hence the expression 'to chance your arm'
