A celebration of one of Ireland’s greatest saints, the exhibition highlights her roots in both pagan and Christian traditions and presents the Faughart born saint as a figure relevant to the times we live in.


The exhibition features examples of her various crosses, as well as the importance of her birthplace as a place of pilgrimage.


It also showcases how her cross has been used in organisations as diverse as RTÉ, the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (formerly An Bord Altranais), and the GAA.
