Historic Places of Worship

The Iveragh Peninsula's spiritual landscape spans over a millennium, from early medieval monastic settlements to 19th-century Gothic Revival architecture. This collection features 12 significant sites, including coastal priory ruins founded by monks from Skellig Michael, remote valley chapels, and parish churches showcasing local stone and Valentia slate craftsmanship. These locations highlight the region’s transition from secluded ascetic retreats to the central community landmarks found in villages like Kenmare, Sneem, and Portmagee.
