Augustinian abbey to visit in Cong, founded in the 12thby Turlough O'Connor on amonastic site.
The Augustinian Abbey of Cong was founded in the 12th century by Turlough O'Connor, High King of Ireland, on a 7th-century monastic site. It is pleasantly labyrinthine, which adds some attraction to a visit to its ruins.
The Cross of Cong. The famous Cross of Cong has had a chequered history, since it came to Ireland from Rome around the 12th century. It symbolises the town, even though it is in the National Museum in Dublin. This processional cross, 75 cm high, was for a long time kept by the monks of Cong Abbey
