St. Canice, Kilkenny Ireland

"Saint Canice's has been at the heart of worship in Kilkenny and Ireland for over 800 years." - reads their website. This is a photo of the altar. The leaders of the church give tours. Worth a visit, it is at one end of the main district and accessible. It has a tower and is located in the middle of an old cemetery.

Of interest to Americans -or at least for me - a crypt contains a relative of Barack Obama from his mother's side. Indeed, he is around fifty percent Irish.
