Reviews of Clare Abbey
M. O.
Nice historic landmark in the middle of the field 😊 Majestic. You'll find new tombs inside, which is pretty interesting and intrigue. Worth see it.

Historic , mystical place . And walking around the courtyard I could imagine the friary monks praying and walking along the courtyard . Beautiful Charis views as you look out the arch windows. You can see the beautiful shades and shadows shining through as you walk around the Abbey. It makes you feel like you're at peace with yourself

Creepy graveyard. A bit difficult to find the path when walking, but not too far to get to.
E. G.
Beautiful Abbey ruin. Parking is limited if other people are here but it is an absolutely gorgeous ruin.

Nice 15th century ruins, run by OPW Heritage. Free access.

Nice old abbey to visit, not very large

Not exactly as easy to find as it is to spot from the motorway! Once there, however, you are rewarded with a very unexpected old ruin. The abbey, in ruins for centuries, has been used for local burials (in the ground within the ancient walls) since at least the mid-1800s. A little interpretive signage in addition to the rules signboard would come in handy, but it is understandable why they wouldn’t want a flood of tourists back here. Not a whole lot to see, so it was a quick stop, but a unique one.

Not the biggest or the most spectacular abbey, but does have some uniqueness with its leaning towers and ruggedness. If you have been to any bigger ones, you may be disappointed, but may still be an interesting visit if you are in the area.

An old Augustinian foundation, nice for a wander
C. B.
Small abbey in ruins, nice to see
P. O.
Established in 1189 by the Augustinians but with many of the windows and tower from 15th century. Simple unadorned
J. G.
Stopped here on our way to Cliffs of Moher from Shannon. Great stop to look around for 15-30 minutes!

Neat little abbey to check out if you are driving past. It is free, and free stuff is rare in Ireland.

(Translated) Nice place as you have on the way. Rather, it is not worth going on a special occasion. Watching for about 10-15 minutes.

Fajne miejsce jak masz po drodze. Raczej nie warto jechać specjalnie. Oglądania na jakieś 10-15 minut.

(Translated) Discovered on the way to our accommodation. It feels like being transferred to another time when you enter the grounds. Inside a green lawn with graves. Also one of 2017. But also very old with date 1888 and younger. Already amazing what you did in the past without construction crew and machines.
(Original)
Auf dem Weg in unsere Unterkunft entdeckt. Man fühlt sich wie in eine andere Zeit versetzt wenn man das Gelände betritt. Im Inneren eine grüne Rasenfläche mit Gräbern. Auch eines von 2017. Aber auch sehr alte mit Datum 1888 und jüngere. Schon erstaunlich was man früher zustande gebracht hat ohne Bautrupp und Maschinen.

(Translated) Following the sign on Clareabbey roundabout, in the southern part of the city of Ennis, we will reach an interesting building related to Irish monasticism. It is CLARE ABBEY, a monastery founded by the Augustinians around 1189. Picturesquely situated on the west bank of the Fergus River, it has survived to this day in the form of a well-preserved ruin. You can still admire architectural details here and we can easily recognize the original functional assumptions of this complex. At one time it was the most important and largest place associated with the presence of the Augustinian Order in County Clare. Today, this place is not visited very often, although in my opinion it is worth even a short visit, especially during the spring utensils on the Fergus River, when the monastery seems to be surrounded by water from everywhere. This additionally emphasizes its landscape values and the whole area. When the situation related to the virus that has recently dominated our lives calms down, a short trip to Clare Abbey can be a safe and interesting way to return to cruise normalcy.

Podążając za oznaczeniem znajdującym się na Clareabbey roundabout , w południowej części miasta Ennis , dotrzemy do ciekawej budowli związanej z irlandzkim monastycyzmem . Jest nią CLARE ABBEY , klasztor założony przez Augustianów , około roku 1189 . Malowniczo położony na zachodnim brzegu rzeki Fergus przetrwał do dziś w formie dobrze zachowanej ruiny . Nadal można podziwiać tu detale architektoniczne oraz bez problemu możemy rozpoznać pierwotne założenia użytkowe tego kompleksu . Swego czasu było to najważniejsze i największe miejsce związane z obecnością Zakonu Augustianów na terenie hrabstwa Clare . Dziś miejsce to nie jest zbyt często odwiedzane choć moim zdaniem warte jest choćby krótkiej wizyty , zwłaszcza podczas wiosennych przyborów na rzece Fergus , kiedy klasztor zdaje się być otoczony zewsząd woda . Podkreśla to dodatkowo jego walory krajobrazowe oraz całej okolicy . Kiedy uspokoi się sytuacja związana z wirusem , który zdominował ostatnio nasze życiowe sprawy , krótka wycieczka do Clare Abbey może być bezpieczną i ciekawą formą powrotu do wycieczkowej normalności .
