Churches & Chapels
The Catholic church at Kilbeacanty sits in a quiet corner of south County Galway, in a parish whose name derives from the Irish Cill Beagánaigh, most likely referencing an early ecclesiastical foundation associated with a figure called Beagánach.
That deep root in early Christian settlement is part of what makes the site worth pausing over, even when the building itself appears, at first glance, to be a fairly typical example of rural Irish church architecture from the post-Penal era.
