Built in the mid-19th century, it stands on the site of an earlier church founded by Saint Fin Barre himself in the 7th century. The cathedral is known for its intricate stone carvings, beautiful stained glass windows, and impressive spires that reach high into the sky. Inside, visitors can admire the ornate altar and the detailed craftsmanship that reflects the dedication of those who built it. The surrounding grounds are just as inviting, offering a peaceful spot to take in the beauty of the structure and its history.
