Nelson's Pillar in Dublin was blown up on March 8th, 1966, by a group of Irish nationalists known as the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The IRA deemed the monument offensive due to its association with British Imperialism and decided to destroy it as a symbolic act of anti-colonial resistance. The resulting explosion destroyed the column and caused significant damage to the surrounding area.
