Inside the Monastery Where a High King Is Buried

Hidden away in the Kilkenny countryside lies one of Ireland's most remarkable forgotten monastic sites. Join me as I explore Kilree Monastic Site, home to a towering round tower, an ancient 8th-century High Cross, medieval church ruins, and a local tradition that claims a High King of Ireland may be buried here. This peaceful site has stood for over 1,000 years, surviving Viking raids, medieval Ireland, and centuries of history. But could this really be the final resting place of a king? Come with me as we uncover the history, legends, and hidden secrets of this incredible place.
