Visit to the Black Abbey

On Monday,  between Maurice's first mass in the morning and Denis' first mass in the evening we had some time to spare so Fr Philip decided to take those of us in his car, to Kilkenney to see the Black Abbey which is the oldest church owned by the Irish Dominican Province.

The building was really cool dripping with history in every corner and we were given the tour by the former prior in Cork, now resident there, Fr Eddy Conway.

We were then able to get a cup of tea and be on our way...
