Kylemore Abbey

Kylemore Abbey is beautifully situated on the banks of a lake surrounded by wooded hills. The monastery is housed in an imposing 19th century castle. Behind the walls, splendidly furnished rooms and halls as well as an exhibition on the history of the place await you. A church in neo-Gothic style also belongs to the property.

After the visit, you can enjoy the beautiful surroundings with a stroll along the lake shore and through the gardens. The tea house offers meals and baked goods based on the nuns' recipes, as well as herbal teas straight from the garden.

Opened in 2019 after a lengthy remodeling, Kylemore Abbey tells the stories of many generations of people who have lived, worked, studied and prayed within its massive granite walls
