Review:
The Rock of Cashel, also called St. Patrick’s Rock and Cashel of the Kings, is a historic attraction in Cashel. It was supposedly the site of the conversion of the King of Munster to the Christian faith by St. Patrick in the 5th century, and for several centuries, the Rock was the seat of the kings of Munster. The complex comprises one of the most significant collections of medieval architecture and Celtic art anywhere in Europe. A number of buildings make up the complex, including the oldest and tallest, the round tower, Cormack’s Chapel, the cathedral, and more. There is a large graveyard on the grounds surrounding the buildings as well as many high crosses.
