Fáilte chuig suíomh idirlín Cumann Oidhreachta Eanach Dhúin Welcome to the website of the Annaghdown Heritage Society. The Society was founded in 1996 to record, preserve and promote the history, culture and heritage of Annaghdown. We organise regular lectures, workshops, outings, and other events to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and the coming together of those interested in heritage. You can sign up to our mailing list here. Áit thar a bheith stairúil is ea Eanach Dhúin – ón sean-mháinistir agus an árdeaglais in aice Loch Coirib, go dtí Muileann an Chreig agus Teampall Cathail in oirthear an pharóiste, tá an ceantar lán le stair, cultúr agus béaloideas. Ina theannta sin, tá roinnt mhaith den cheantar suite i nGaeltacht an Eachréidh, agus tá ról lárnach ag an nGaeilge i saol na háite. Annaghdown is a truly historic place – from the ruins of the monastic settlement and cathedral beside Lough Corrib, to Cregg Mill and the ruins of St Cathal’s Church in the east of the parish, the area is filled with buildings and structures of historical and archaeological significance. This is complemented by a wide range of of folklore, together with a strong tradition of, and interest in, the Irish language, with the west part of the parish situated in Gaeltacht an Eachréidh. Events and Projects Forthcoming events are listed on the right of this page. All events are free of charge and open to the public. Membership of the Society is open to all. We request an annual subscription of €10 to help with running costs. Some of our recent and current projects include: - Recording of headstones in local cemeteries – completed for burials in Annaghdown Abbey and Corrandulla Cemetery; we are currently working on Annaghdown Cemetery (old section); - A study of each townland in the parish – see this page for links to each townland. We welcome correspondence through English or Irish – you can send us a message here. Several of our members have extensive genealogical knowledge relating to the Annaghdown area and are happy to be of assistance. New members are always welcome to join the Society.
