    Tips

    March 1, 2023

    Athassel Priory sits on the River Suir and is the largest medieval priory in Ireland, stretching over a 4-acre plot.



    The quiet beauty of the sight belies its past as a major urban centre with a population of 2,000. It was established as a Augustinian monastery in the 12th century and dedicated to St. Edmund.



    The site is free to access but you will have to step off the bike and jump over a stile and cross a medieval stone bridge to reach the Abbey. Well worth it to see such a stunning ruin.
