Today, a couple friends and I ventured out in to the streets of Dublin, Ireland. We were able to see St Patrick's Cathedral (founded in 1191)! Pretty cool sight! We simple stopped and took some photos - that was pretty much it. We didn't visit the inside as we didn't have a whole lot of time that day.
Disestablishment 150: Choral Evensong
The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Revd and Rt Hon Justin Welby, was the guest preacher at a special service in St Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin, on Saturday (23rd November) to mark the 150th anniversary of the Church of Ireland’s Disestablishment. The service ended with a procession of lay readers, clergy, and bishops from across the Church of Ireland, and our guests.

Armagh Cathedral - Saint Patrick's Cathedral
This stunning Cathedral that is located in Armagh city is St. Patrick's Cathedral - or as it is sometimes referred to Armagh Cathedral - which overlooks this beautiful city and brings back history that is related to Saint Patrick who was behind building the church.
For this cathedral to come to life, it went through different building phases that started in 1840 and ended in 1904, and it was mainly built in order to serve as the Roman Catholic Cathedral of the Archdiocese of Armagh, the original Medieval Cathedral of St. Patrick having been transferred to the Protestant Church of Ireland at the time of the Irish Reformation.
This Cathedral stands on a hill that is known as Sandy Hill and so does its Anglican Counterpart; this is the reason why this cathedral overlooks the whole city of Armagh and makes one important historical attraction for those coming to visit the city and check what it has to offer them.
This cathedral which was built by Saint Patrick has gone through years of construction and there were those times in which the construction phase was the most slow. One of the longest gaps in this construction process was during the years of the Great Famine since the cathedral funds were diverted to the more pressing cause of the famine relief.
Since it took lots of years for this cathedral to come to life and open its doors to the people of Armagh, there were different Archbishops who were behind the work done in this cathedral. Archbishop William Crolly negotiated the current site for the cathedral and the original architect was Thomas J. Duff Newry. Primate Joseph Dixon who took the work from 1852 to 1866, declared East Monday as a Resumption Day, not just for the financial contributions for the cathedral, but also for the first bazaar that he organized and for which there were different gifts sent over, such as the grandfather clock which is now standing in the cathedral sacristy.
After the death of architect Thomas Duff, J. J. McCarthy took over and he even came up with a new plan but which was not entirely followed, it was used as a continuous plan for what Duff initially started. Under Archbishop Daniel McGettigan the cathedral was completed and he even witnessed the construction of the seven-terraced flight of steps leading from the cathedral gates to the piazza in front of the west door, and he also completed to make other additions since he built the Archbishop's house in 1879-1877 and the sacristan's lodge in 1884-1886 just inside the cathedral gates.
And eventually came Cardinal Michael Logue who was the one to bring lots of changes to the cathedral and since the interior of the cathedral was dull and undecorated, he even traveled to Italy on his personal expenses to see what the Vatican city has and try to implement some things from it; the walls decorated with mosaic, the stained glass windows, the oil ceilings, and every other thing was the work of Logue.
We have to say that St. Patrick's Cathedral in Armagh city is a piece of art, whether from the inside or from the outside, and this goes for the different eras it has been built in and the different minds who helped in adding different ideas to its building phase - it is definitely a place which those coming to Armagh city for the first time should visit and check.
St. Patrick's Cathedral has been built in the Gothic Revival Style and that was one of the reasons why the plan that Duff has placed was never changed afterwards by those other architects who came after. The interesting thing about the completion of this cathedral is that it was completed mainly by using Irish materials and workmanship, which means that it is a locally built cathedral.
The cathedral later on went through a restoration phase that took place in 2003 for major structural repairs that needed to be done and this also included restoring and enhancing the interior decoration and the upgrading of the existing facilities. There were different changes done to the cathedral and there were even things that were transported to other places to make a new one for praying and meditation.

Christchurch Cathedral (Church of Ireland), Waterford, Ireland
The first cathedral to stand on this site was built in 1096 by the Vikings, who had recently converted from paganism to Christianity and affiliated themselves with the Archbishop of Canterbury. It was he who appointed Malchus as the first Bishop of Waterford, in fact one of the first in Ireland.
Less than one hundred years after its construction, the Cathedral hosted an event which would change the course of Irish history forever, with the marriage of Strongbow, an English knight, to an Irish princess named Aoife in 1170. This political union granted Aoife’s father, the deposed King of Leinster, troops from England to reclaim his throne and ensured Strongbow would inherit his kingship upon his father-in-law’s death.
By 1210 the Normans had taken control of Waterford and built a new Medieval Cathedral. This was expanded through the years to include side chapels dedicated to leading Waterford figures such as James Rice, who served as city mayor 11 times in the 15th Century. The base of one of the pillars of this Norman Cathedral still remains and has been opened up for viewing.
In the 18th Century, the progressive City Corporation of the time came to regard the Norman Cathedral as rather old-fashioned and recommended to the Bishop that a new one be constructed. Bishop Chenevix resisted this proposal, and it is said that a ruse was devised to encourage his change of mind. As he was walking through the Cathedral some rubble was strategically dropped in his path, close enough to shock the clergyman, who was soon found to support the construction of a new church. The Gothic Norman Cathedral was torn down in 1773, or rather blown down, as the building was so strongly constructed that the use of gunpowder was required in its demolition.
Construction on the new Cathedral began in in 1773 and was completed in 1779, at a total cost of £5,397. It was designed by John Roberts, whose imagination had given shape to much of Georgian Waterford. Roberts also designed the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Barronstrand Street, giving Waterford the unique distinction of being the only city in Europe where the Protestant and Catholic Cathedrals were conceived by the same man.
Architecture
This cathedral has been described by architectural historian Mark Girouard as the finest 18th Century Ecclesiastical building in Ireland. It was built in the Neo-Classical Georgian style which was de rigueur. Roberts was fond of this style, reminiscent of Ancient Greece and its elegance was in contrast to the ornate Gothic interiors of most of the churches in this time. The spectacular stucco plasterwork ceiling is very similar to what could be seen in many 18th Century palaces and stately homes across Europe.
What you see today varies slightly from this original construction, as a disastrous Organ Gallery fire in 1815 devastated the magnificent Elliot organ and much of the surrounding woodwork. The cathedral was closed for three years for repair and reconstruction. Some further improvements were deemed necessary in 1891 by Sir Thomas Drew, a leading architect of the time. The square pews and galleries were removed and the ground floor windows blocked up. A new case was built for the organ and it was taken down from its gallery and squeezed into the left-hand corner of the Cathedral. In 2003 the organ was restored and a new gallery was built to house it in its original position.
The Tetragrammaton
YHWH the holy and unutterable name of God
Given central place on the reredos behind the altar is the Tetragrammaton the letters YHWH, the holy and unutterable name of God in the Hebrew Bible. This roots the faith of Christians in the biblical tradition of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
The James Rice Tomb and the Camino
James Rice tomb
Cadaver Monument ‘I am what you will be; I was what you are now.’
James Rice was Mayor of Waterford eleven times during the 15th Century. In 1481 he built a chapel to house his tomb in the original Norman cathedral. It is a fine example of a cadaver monument, depicting the horror of death and the glory of saints. Weather damage has taken its toll down the centuries and made the Latin inscription quite difficult to read. Rice wished that his tomb be a reminder of the briefness of our earthly lives and the transient nature of fame, wealth and power. The tomb displays a badly decayed corpse, crawling with worms and with a frog feasting on the stomach. A section of the inscription reads, ‘I am what you will be; I was what you are now.’ The figures of saints can be seen on the sides of the tomb.
Rice walked the Camino pilgrimage twice during his lifetime and his tomb became a starting point for Waterford pilgrims as they embarked upon their journey to Santiago di Compostela.
