    Journey back in time to explore the hauntingly beautiful ruins of Dunbrody Abbey, a hidden gem in County Wexford, Ireland. Founded in the 12th century by Cistercian monks and funded by the powerful Anglo-Norman lord Hervé de Montmorency, Dunbrody Abbey was once a thriving center of faith, power, and wealth. From its grand Gothic architecture to its turbulent history through war, famine, and the Reformation, this abbey has stood witness to Ireland’s most defining moments.
    In this video, we’ll uncover the abbey's remarkable story, from its rise as a medieval powerhouse to its fall during Henry VIII’s Dissolution of the Monasteries. Join us as we walk through the ruins, discover the lives of the monks who lived here, and reveal the enduring legacy of Dunbrody Abbey.

    Nice video .. We had our own celtic church before Catholicism in ireland .. The normans destroyed it .. leaving the irish subjugated not just to the normans but the new Catholic church, ie the NEW foreign landowners ..

      Thank you for watching and your kind comments. It's something that often gets forgotten, that there was Celtic paganism before Christianity reached Ireland.
