The Story of Co. Offaly
In the midlands along the River Shannon, Offaly, once King’s County, is home to Clonmacnoise, one of early Christian Europe’s greatest monastic cities, founded by St Ciarán in the sixth century. Its round towers, high crosses and ruined churches rise from the riverside, surrounded by the great boglands of the Irish midlands.
