    Founded in the 14th century, this medieval Franciscan friary was founded by the O’Briens of Thomond, who then ruled much of north Munster.
    It is worth parking your bike up to visit the friary as the exquisite 15th and 16th century sculptures carved into the limestone are worth seeing up close.

    The ancient 14th century monastery, founded by the O'Briens, exudes a special atmosphere that is best explored on foot. The details of the 15th and 16th century sculptures carved in limestone are impressive and give an insight into the craftsmanship of times gone by.

    Time seems to stand still here as you walk between the ruins and see the tower rising into the sky. The green surroundings around the monastery create a beautiful contrast to the grey stone walls and invite you to linger for a moment away from the streets before moving on to the next stage.
