The more you know........
The Original Hollywood - Hollywood, Co Wicklow
Hollywood is a picturesque village at the end of the Wicklow Gap road with a population of less than 100 people. There is a great feeling of pride in the village that its name gave rise to Hollywood, USA. Locals here erected a replica of the iconic Hollywood sign in the hills above. It can be seen from as far away as Kilcullen near the Curragh in Co Kildare.
It was a local emigrant from Hollywood, one Matthew Guirke, who gave the name of his native place to the famous suburb in Los Angeles. Hollywood was decimated by the famine of the 1840's. Like millions of others in the years following this catastrophe, Guirke was forced to seek a new life in America. He eventually ended up in California near where Hollywood is today.
