As requested by our members, the theme for our August XO Chronicles Webinar was Irish MONASTERIES.

During this workshop we took a trip through time, all the way to Medieval Ireland. This consisted of a virtual tour of some of our island's finest monasteries led by our resident Archaeologist.
We talked about the history of Early Christian Ireland and how to identify the different buildings contained within these sites.
Travel may be off the cards for the moment, but you can still learn about these incredible structures and plan which ones to visit when we can finally welcome you home to Ireland once more.
