The U2 Graffiti Wall at Windmill Lane Studios

The U2 Graffiti Wall at Windmill Lane Studios is where U2's music began. They recorded their first three albums there. They continued to use Windmill Lane throughout the 1980's. The wall outside the studio has been marked with chalk, pens and paint over the years by U2 fans from all around the world. Although the studio is no longer located there, the wall still stands as an amazing tribute to the "greatest band on the planet".

Artists such as U2, Van Morrison, Sinéad O'Connor, and Elvis Costello have recorded there. U2 recorded their first three albums at Windmill.

The site of the old studios is covered in graffiti from fans who have paid pilgrimage from all over the world. For U2 fans wishing to visit the site please note it is not sign posted at all and continuously tourists get lost looking for it..
