Windows were smashed as Dr Micheline Sheehy Skeffington reenacted her grandmother's historic actions from 1912 at Dublin Castle.
In 1912 Irish suffragette Hanna Sheehy Skeffington smashed windows in protest against women not having the right to vote.
Dr Sheehy Skeffington dressed up in the clothes of the time and broke some glass from a mock window while an actor - dressed as policeman of that period - arrested her.
A large crowd gathered to watch the reenactment. Dublin City Council has approved plans to erect a blue plaque to mark where Hanna smashed the windows.
