- Manister Abbey.Three miles west of Meanus is Manister an Aonaigh, the monastery of the Fair or Assembly.
About 1138 Malachy Archbishop of Armagh visited St Bernard of Clairvaux France, where there was a Community of Cistercians. Malachy was induced by the Abbot to introduce the order to Ireland. The first Cistercian monastery was built at Mellifont, the second at Baltinglass and the third at Manister on the banks of the Camogue.
It grew in numbers so much that it gave monks to several monasteries in Munster.
The story is told that one day the monks were going from Manister to Adare (6 miles away).
They were going in procession and one monk at the end of the line had forgotten his breviary. He passed back work to those behind him and they in turn passed it back until it reached Manister(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
