We stopped by the Cathedral of St Mary and St Anne while exploring Cork—didn’t go inside, but even just from the outside it’s an absolutely beautiful building. The architecture is stunning, with loads of detail and a real sense of history. It’s perched on a bit of a hill too, so it really stands out against the skyline. Admittedly, we admired it while getting fairly soaked by the classic Irish weather—let’s just say the views were dramatic *and* damp. Still, even through the rain, it was well worth the uphill wander. A lovely spot that we’d happily return to (ideally with an umbrella next time).

At one end of Cork you have St Fin Barre's Cathedral and at the other end and in total contrast you have Cathedral of St Mary. Although both large, St Mary's is Catholic church, modernised with modern stain glass windows. The current church was rebuilt following a fire in 1996, I think, however Church on tthis site dates back to 1731. Many original parts and pieces still exist but need finding. To the far side and tucked away a little are some oils in large ornate bottles but, also is a relic of Thaddeus McCarthy. The old font is also still there.

Se trata de la catedral católica de Cork. Arquitectonicamente no tiene gran interés. Construida en 1808 sufrió un grave incendio, intencionado, en 1820 y las últimas obras finalizaron en 1964, así que hablamos de una iglesia moderna. La visita es gratuita y los alrededores son curiosos, en las proximidades se encuentra el Museo de la Mantequilla, alimento muy apreciado en Cork, el Teatro Firkin Cane, ubicado en un edificio circular y una fábrica de Heineken.
