Murroe, Co. Limerick

Glenstal Abbey is in the town of Murroe. 









It is in many ways a typical, small Irish town. Memories of the Irish War of Independence can be found in several places. In the center of town is a cross commemorating those who gave their lives during the war.






Because they were seen as martyrs, they were buried just outside the local church, in the area usually reserved for priests.
