  • 1. Gallarus Oratory Dingle
    The Gallarus Oratory (Irish: Séipéilín Ghallarais, Gallarus being interpreted as either rocky headland or house or shelter for foreigner , is a chapel located on the Dingle Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland. It has been presented variously as an early Christian stone church by its discoverer, antiquary Charles Smith, in 1756; a 12th-century Romanesque church by archaeologist Peter Harbison in 1970; a shelter for pilgrims by the same in 1994. The local tradition prevalent at the time of the oratory's discovery attributed it to one Griffith More, being a funerary chapel built by him or his family at their burial place. The oratory overlooks the harbour at Ard na Caithne on the Dingle Peninsula.
