Clonkeen Church
Nestled in the heart of County Limerick, Clonkeen Church stands as a testament to Ireland's rich history. Founded by Saint Mo-Diomog in the 6th or 7th century, this medieval church is a National Monument, echoing tales of faith and resilience.
The present structure, dating back to the mid-12th century, mirrors the architectural grandeur of the Aghadoe Cathedral. Despite falling into ruin by 1657, the church's Romanesque doorway, adorned with intricate carvings, remains well-preserved.
Today, the grounds of Clonkeen Church continue to serve as a burial site, silently narrating stories of the past. Each stone and mortar in its structure whispers tales of time, making it not just a monument, but a living chronicle of Ireland's heritage. Its enduring presence serves as a reminder of the timeless heritage and the indomitable spirit of Limerick.
