Holy wells can be found throughout the entire country of Ireland. They range from small holes to large water areas. These sacred spaces have drawn pilgrims for centuries. These pilgrims walk patterns of prayer and ritual that are held at each of these locations to remember, pray and honor. Come learn more about this Irish tradition of holy wells and patterns.
