Nano Nagle Place in Cork

Wonderful place! Beautiful gardens and fascinating history!

I dropped in today. Ait gallant, the shield of the work done. Just a friendly and helpful dinner

Nano Nagle Place, a fortified and active Ursuline convent, with an unexpectedly charming garden.

We really enjoyed our visit to this gem. Really friendly, informative and helpful staff. A wonderful museum area which tells the story of the beginnings of school education in Cork city. Peaceful gardens and a great coffee shop. Amazing value. Really worth a visit!

A very instructive visit. Don't miss taking a short walk through the gardens

A fab place to visit!! Lovely cafe in the garden too.

Visitor "attractions" are often such a bore they do anything but attract interest. Nano Nagle Place deserves a category of its own, as a place to visit. I can not do it adequate justice in a few paragraphs. History and social context are explained in print, video, artefacts, and are all backed up by a seriously well stocked gift shop. As if that is not enough, check out the cafe in the garden!

Beautiful restaurant and wonderful food. Located in a beautiful garden hidden in the middle of the city. A must do.

Nano Nagle devoted herself to religion and helped and educated the poor, Catholic girls and boys more than 200 years ago when the Penal Law was employed. Her work and the Presentation Sisters deserved more attention and respect.

I was introduced to here via the Lantern project. Very inclusive of all ages. Great courses in things like pottery, crochet, boat building, singing and much more. I had the privilege of attending the Christmas 🎄 choir recital which was a fab day. Lantern project clientele, staff and local school kids made up the choir, musicians and conductors. I didn't realise that Karina had such a singing voice!! Both Gary and Karina have always been the best as well as all the volunteers. The Lantern Project at Nano Nagle place helped me immensely a few years ago. Thank you all 🙏💚🇮🇪
