I recall one story, recounted by a local on the radio some years ago, who claimed that he had carried the sword off shortly after the explosion and put it in his car on Bachelor's Walk, then returned to the remains of the pillar to check for any injured. He claimed that when he returned to his car, the window was smashed and the sword was gone.
Has anyone heard any other stories of what became of it?

Nelson's Pillar, which was blown up on the 8th of March 1966.
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.
