The village of Killaloe in County Clare features several spiritual sites, including the early monastery founded by St Fachnan, located at the southern end of Lough Derg, and St Flannan’s Oratory, a 12th-century Romanesque church that continues to be used today. Visitors to the latter can view fine carvings, a unique Ogham stone and an elaborately designed 13th-century basin. On the grounds of St Flannan’s Catholic Church, guests can also visit St Molua’s oratory. It is thought to date back to the 12th century and originally stood on Friary’s Island, but was removed after floods in 1929.
