Explore one of Ireland’s finest medieval abbeys
Set on the scenic Hook Peninsula in County Wexford, Dunbrody Abbey is a breathtaking example of medieval Cistercian architecture. Founded in the 13th century, the Abbey still stands with much of its original stonework intact — from the towering church walls to the peaceful cloister garden. Walking through the ruins is more than a glimpse into the past — it’s a serene and moving experience that invites you to slow down, reflect, and connect with Ireland’s rich heritage.
