An epic Lego model of one of Ireland’s most iconic buildings cost the National Library just €3,100 to have built.

The incredible construction, which measures almost 6ft x 6ft, and stands 2ft-tall, was built to give a glimpse of how the famous National Library buildings in Dublin will look after redevelopment.
