Historic church
Oct 2019
St Multose Church was built around 1190 on the site of a Norman 6th C church. There is good information available about the history, but inclement weather prevented us exploring the churchyard to find the three graves of victims of the Lusitania. It appeared that being an historic church did not prevent the current congregation from being active in the Kinsale community. The church was easily reached on foot from the central town area.

Active parish church since the 12th century

Just a short walk up from the harbor. A historical church that is still an active parish. Very interesting history that is well documented with signs in the church. Free to self tour .

Beautiful peaceful holy

This is the oldest church in continuous use in Ireland. It has beautiful stained glass windows some honoring parishioners who died in World War I. I has outstanding acoustics. My friend sang in the empty church and it was clear and delicate. I stood in prayer. This is place stop by in Kinsale.

Amazing historical church and landmark. A walk around the adjoining cemetary was a walk through time. The church docent had many interesting stories to tell about this centuries old church.

Walk through the church, the gardens, the ancient cemetaries. Mesmorizing. Then, cross the street and have a coffee, tea or pastry and enjoy the view of the church you just savored.

Beautiful historic church in Kinsale.
Jul 2019
Lovely, small, historic church located in Kinsale. The lovely sanctuary is very small and a sense of peace settles over one as you step into the sanctuary. There are a few people buried in the cemetery from the Lusitania disaster, which occurred just off the coast of Kinsale.

Important church
Jul 2019 • Friends
It would be a pity to miss this historically important church, one of the oldest in Ireland.
So climb the alleyways, away from the tourists in the town and make your way to see the stained glass, the memorial inscriptions and the decor. The view across Kinsale and the harbour is well worth it too.

Very Interesting Church
Jul 2019 • Couples
St. Multose is worth a visit especially since it is near the main town area. The stained glass windows and the overall decoration of the church is eye catching. The various memorials are interesting as many of them memorialize Irish who served in the British Army.

Great Place to Park
Jul 2019 • Family
Sorry, we didn't actually visit the church itself. But the church parking lot is one of the best places to park for free in town, so long as you don't go during mass.

Beautiful to visit
Jul 2019 • Couples
On a stroll around town I found this beautiful church. The grounds are so nicely kept and the cemetery is a step back in history and worth a stroll through. The church itself is just lovely. Worth a quick stop off.
