Said to be one of the most extensive and best-preserved Franciscan friaries throughout Ireland, the ruins of Ross Errilly Friary, founded in 1351, are still impressive in their surrounding landscape. The prominent de Burgh family were the chief patrons of the friary and often protected the friary ensuring peaceful times. However, in 1538, English authorities killed many friars along with imprisoning two hundred.

About Galway

Galway is a harbour city on Ireland's west coast, with a pedestrian old centre, traditional music, a seaside promenade and Connemara just to the west.

Galway stands where the River Corrib meets Galway Bay, and in the Middle Ages it was ruled by fourteen merchant families known as the Tribes, who built its stone houses and quays. The Spanish Arch recalls the trade with Spain, and Eyre Square, the Latin Quarter around Shop Street and Quay Street, and the Claddagh, a former fishing village that gave its name to the Claddagh ring, form the centre. The cathedral, consecrated in 1965, stands by the river.
