Cashel's town is dominated by a rocky cape, The Rock
of Cashel.
This cliff lives the baptism by Saint Patric, towards 450, on the first Christian king of Munster. Afterward it sheltered a fortress which was of use as place of residence of kings-bishops of the Munster. The cathedral of the XIII-th was partially destroyed to get back the beams of the roof. The jewel of this place is small Cormac Mac Carthy's Roman chapel. Dedicated in 1134, it possesses very fine sculptures, in particular human heads. |
