Sligo, Republic of Ireland<br /> <br /> The Dominican priory known as Sligo Abbey has dominated Sligo's eastern district since the town was founded in the mid-thirteenth century.

In the summer of 1832 the graveyard was overwhelmed by the victims of a cholera epidemic. The Abbey was finally closed to burials in 1847 - 'Black'47' - at the height of the Great Famine.<br /> <br /> Despite the ravages of history, the Abbey retains a wealth of carvings, including Gothic and Renaissance monumental sculpture, the well preserved cloister arcade, and the sculptured fifteenth-century high altar - one of the very few to survive in an Irish monastic church.<br /> <br /> The Cloister<br /> <br /> The cloisters surround the cloister garth, an enclosed courtyard that may have contained a physic garden growing medicinal herbs. These walkways connect the claustral buildings, including the preserved thirteenth-century chapterhouse.
