When you go into a church or cathedral, you don't know what to expect. The church is a reflection and expression of the people who live in the area. Surprised to see a 6 hundred year old skull at the entrance, a Franciscan Martyr. An ornate altar with a structure that was reminiscent of the Cologne cathedral spires. The church itself is plain with the focus on the altar. The walls surrounding the altar is mosaics. A beautiful stain glass window sits above the entry, which is best viewed, looking back from the altar.

The Irish Franciscans Church which opened in 1867 is part of the Franciscans history in the area. It also has the shrine of a South Kerry Monk Francis Diarmuid O’Sullivan who was beheaded by Cromwellian Soldiers in the 17th century.
