Kylemore Abbey

Places to See | Co. Galway, Ireland



Kylemore Abbey & Victorian Walled Garden is one of Ireland’s most romantic castles, set in the stunning surrounds of Connemara. It has one of the prime examples of the parks and gardens in Ireland.

Thousands of people come to visit this attraction in Co. Galway every year to see the magnificent fairy tale castle and Abbey. They also come to experience not only the natural beauty of Kylemore but to experience the aura of peace and tranquillity and a sense of spirituality.

As a fully operation example of the churches and monasteries of Ireland, The Benedictine Nuns remain in residence at Kylemore and as Directors of the Kylemore Trust, they are very much part of the fabric of today’s Kylemore, indeed its spiritual heart.

Open all year with woodland walks, Ireland’s largest Victorian Walled Garden, shop and restaurant.
