Glendalough

Glendalough Essentials

Glendalough contains one of Ireland's most significant monastic sites, founded by Saint Kevin in the 6th century. This collection features the valley’s architectural highlights, including the 30-meter-tall round tower, the double-arched medieval gateway, and the Romanesque ruins of Saint Saviour’s Priory. Beyond the stone churches and high crosses, the list covers the natural landscape of the Wicklow Mountains, from the glacial Upper Lake to the cascades of Poulanass Waterfall.
