The highest church in Ireland at 764m

on top of Croagh Patrick in my home county of Mayo

What a wonderful position for a church, you'de certainly be closer to Him up there!

[Mary Siegle]

Is it a Catholic Church? Every mass would be a high mass there! Ha ha
Seriously, though, what an inspiring place for worship.

@mcsiegle yes Saint Patrick is said to have spent 40 days up here , the church was built in 1905 all materials transported by donkeys..

[Mary Siegle]

Interesting! Thanks. (What a climb you had to get these shots!)

A very cool spot to build a church and the view is amazing. :)

[Richard Sayer]

Simple, elegant and amazing to visit, I imagine.

The clouds give the church a glow of sorts, what a most fabulous shot. Fav.

I noticed in Italy that they always seemed to have a church on the highest peek, I guess its the Higher you are, the closer you are to god!!!

Reminds me of something one would see on Santorini

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

So this is the view, I've been on the top, years ago but it was really bad weather, fog, torrential rain and together with hundreds of other. We, not knowing, had chosen the last Sunday in July, which is when pilgrimes go up.

I remember helping an old man down the mountain with my friend, he could hardly walk and the first aid tents were packed.
