Christchurch, known also as the Holy Trinity, sits discreetly in the background of Bishop Lucey Park on Grand Parade. The entrance to Christchurch is located on South Main Street, once the main street of medieval Cork. Christchurch ceased to function as a place of worship in 1978 due to dwindling congregation numbers and the building was purchased by Cork City Council in 1979 for the sum of Ł20,000. The refurbishment of Christchurch includes the integration of the Triskel Arts Centre building located next door on Tobin Street. The two buildings are joined to the Church via an extensive glazed link creating a beautiful new venue within the city to house creative performances and visual art. The tour includes an introduction to the newly renovated building, the medieval and early modern history of the church, the building’s distinctive features, its historical characters, the graveyard and the crypt. Our guides can also facilitate tours of Christchurch for groups and schools outside of our regular tours. We also offer special guided tours of Christchurch in German.
