ST MARY'S CATHEDRAL
Romanesque church founded in 1168, one of the first in Ireland, with a remarkable altar, one of the most imposing in the country.
In honor of the Virgin Mary, this Romanesque church was founded in 1168 by order of Donald Mór O'Brien, King of Munster, making it one of the first in Ireland. Many alterations and additions have been made since then, but it still retains some of its original features. Of particular note are the choir's almost fantastical15th-century carved stalls and the 12th-century altar, carved from a single block and reputed to be one of the most imposing in the country. Concerts are regularly held here. Find out more.
