The Apostolic Nunciature to Ireland is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Ireland, with the rank of an embassy. The nuncio serves both as the ambassador of the Holy See to the President of Ireland, and as delegate and point-of-contact between the Catholic hierarchy in Ireland and the Pope.

History

The Holy See, as the central government of the Catholic Church[1] from early Christian times[2] (as distinct from the State of Vatican City, which came into existence in 1929),[3] has full diplomatic ties with Ireland as well as many other countries worldwide. As of 2017 the apostolic nuncio to Ireland is Archbishop Luis Mariano Montemayor.[4] The nuncio's residence and office, the nunciature, is at Navan Road, Dublin, Ireland.[5] Diplomatic relations were established between Ireland, then called the Irish Free State, and the Holy See were established on 29 November 1929.[6]
