Ahenny (Irish: Áth Eine, meaning 'ford of Eine') is a small village and townland in County Tipperary. It is notable for its ancient Irish high crosses. Close to the village is the early Christian foundation of Kilclispeen monastery and in the adjoining graveyard stand two celebrated Irish High Crosses: the Ahenny High Crosses.
These high crosses are amongst the earliest (8th/9th century) examples of Celtic high crosses to be found in Ireland.

The most distinctive feature in the design of Celtic crosses is the surrounding circle that connects the crossbars and the vertical beams. This circle is sometimes interpreted as a symbol for the sun; in accordance with this symbolism, Celtic crosses are sometimes also referred to as sun crosses. I found the following meditative reflection on this topic in the hospital chaplaincy of the Protestant deanery of Nassauer Land:
"The sun cross is a special symbol of Celtic Christianity. It can become a symbol for spirituality.
