Damon found this killer page at Wikipedia that lists all the monastic sites in Ireland, so we decided to check out Ross Errilly, which is only 30 minutes from Galway.
The Ross Errilly Friary, a medieval Franciscan abbey, is among the best-preserved medieval monastic sites in the country. And we had no idea it was nearby. The detail on the walls and windows were amazing for such old ruins. We walked through short doorways into mazes of corridors past the chapels, a kitchen, courtyard, tombs and rooms galore. It's definitely somewhere we'll take any visitors and suggest to our American friends living in Galway.
