Quin Abbey, in Quin, County Clare, Ireland, was built between 1402 and 1433 by Sioda Cam MacNamara, for Fathers Purcell and Mooney, friars of the Franciscan order. Although mostly roofless, the structure of the abbey is relatively well preserved. There is an intact cloister, and many other surviving architectural features make the friary of significant historical value. A far earlier monastery had existed on the site, which burned down in 1278. A Norman castle was built soon after by Thomas de Clare, a military commander. The foundations of the castle's enormous corner towers can still be seen. Around 1350 the castle, by then a ruin, was rebuilt as a church by the McNamara clan.

Quin Abbey is 15 mins drive. It was built between 1402 and 1433 by Sioda Cam MacNamara, for Fathers Purcell and Mooney, friars of the Franciscan order. Although mostly roofless, the structure of the abbey is relatively well preserved. After visiting the abbey make sure to continue on to the pre-historic Celtic park of Craggaunowen. Well worth a visit.

15th Century Franciscan Abbey. A hidden gem, off the normal tourist trail.

It's so nearby for a quick dash out if staying in for most of the day. Full of history, fresh air, wonderful photo shoot and there is a cute Tea room across the road with also a Pub and restaurant.
