Description
The Rock of Cashel (Carraig Ph�aig), aka St. Patrick's Rock and/or theCashel of the Kings. Reputedly the site of the conversion of Aenghus the King of Munster by St. Patrick in the 5th century AD. Long before the Norman invasion The Rock of Cashel was the seat of the High Kings of Munster, although there is little structural evidence of their time. Most of the buildings on the current site date from the 12th and 13th centuries when the rock was gifted to the Church. The buildings represent both Hiberno-Romanseque and Germanic influences in their architecture. Carving of the crucifixion of Jesus flanked by bishops on a stone slab beneath an altar.
