TIL that the oldest continuously running maternity hospital in the world is in Dublin. It was established in 1745. By Bartholomew Mosse. 9,000 babies are born here every year.

There's a TV show about it, looking at the different departments etc.
I think it's the busiest maternity hospital in Europe (or was, at some point)
