St Fethlimidh's Cathedral, Kilmore
St Fethlimidh's Cathedral, Kilmore is one of two cathedral churches in the Diocese of Kilmore, Elphin and Ardagh (along with St John the Baptist Cathedral, Sligo) in the Church of Ireland. It is situated in the parish of Kilmore, southwest of the county town of Cavan. Design The cathedral stands on an elevated wooded site adjacent to Lough Oughter. It features a Twelfth century Gaelic Irish Romanesque doorway (c1170), incongruously set into a chancel north wall, employed as a vestry door. Its origins are unclear, as it had been part of the wall of the earlier cathedral since the 18th century (which became a parish hall). The Romanesque doorway probably was taken from the now demolished Drumlane St.Mary Augustinian priory. However, local belief suggest that the doorway possibly came from the nearby Trinity Island priory church (c 1250). The cathedral possesses an original copy of the first translation of the Old Testament into Irish by William Bedell, Bishop of Kilmore from 16 ...

List Of Cathedrals In Ireland
This article lists the current and former cathedrals of the main Christian churches in Ireland. Since the main denominations are organised on an all-Ireland basis, this article includes information about both jurisdictions: Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Overview It is a commonly held perception that the term 'cathedral' may be applied to any particularly large or grand church. Whilst many cathedrals may be such, this is due to their ecclesiastical status (such a church is grand because it is a cathedral, rather than it being a cathedral because of its grandeur). A cathedral may therefore be a smaller building, particularly where they exist in sparser or poorer communities. Modern cathedrals may lack the grandeur of former times, focussing on the functional aspect of a place of worship, though it should be borne in mind that many of the grand and ancient cathedrals of today were originally built to a much smaller plan, and have been successively extended and rebu ...

Cavan Cathedral
The Cathedral of Saint Patrick and Saint Felim, also known as Cavan Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in Cavan, Ireland. It is the seat of the Bishop of Kilmore, and the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kilmore. History In 1152, the Diocese of Kilmore was formally established by Cardinal Giovanni Paparoni at the synod of Kells. In 1454, Pope Nicholas V gave permission for the ancient church at Kilmore (founded in the sixth century by Saint Felim) to be the cathedral church of Kilmore diocese. It was rebuilt and became known in Irish as ''An Chill Mhór'' (meaning ''Great Church'') and anglicised as Kilmore, which gave its name to the diocese, a name which has remained ever since. During the Reformation, the Roman Catholic diocese lost possession of the cathedral and all the other temporalities and passed into the hands of the Church of Ireland. Following the completion of the new Anglican cathedral in 1860, the pre-Reformation cathedral became ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bishop Of Kilmore
The Bishop of Kilmore is an episcopal title which takes its name after the parish of Kilmore, County Cavan in Ireland. In the Roman Catholic Church it remains a separate title, but in the Church of Ireland it has been united with other bishoprics. History The see of Kilmore was originally known as Breifne (Latin: ''Tirbrunensis'', ''Tybruinensis'' or ''Triburnia''; Irish: ''Tír mBriúin'', meaning "the land of the descendants of Brian", one of the kings of Connaught) and took its name after the Kingdom of Breifne., ''Handbook of British Chronology'', p. 362. The see became one of the dioceses approved by Giovanni Cardinal Paparoni at the synod of Kells in 1152, and has approximately the same boundaries as those of the ancient Kingdom of Breifne. In the Irish annals, the bishops were recorded of ''Breifne'', ''Breifni'', ''Breifny'', ''Tir-Briuin'', or ''Ui-Briuin-Breifne''. In the second half of the 12th century, it is likely the sees of Breifne and Kells were ruled ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
