  1. Rathfraan Abbey

    Share Share Post
    Long ago when the monks decided to build the Abbey on Mullagh Na Croise. They buried the Holy Cross there. When they came next morning they found that the Cross was missing.
    So they found it in Rathfraan. Where God wished it to be built. Some of the old ruins of the Abbey are standing yet.
