Located along the sea in County Cork, the town of Cobh is home to the impressive St Colmans Cathedral. Built in the neo-Gothic style over the course of 47 years, the cathedral finally opened in 1911.
Today, the cathedral continues to hold religious services and often hosts recitals featuring choirs from around the world.
When looking from the west you can see one of Cobhs most iconic buildings behind the “deck of cards”.
The tower contains a carillon which, with 49 bells, is one of the largest in Europe. An automated system strikes the hour and 15 minute intervals while it also rings the bells in appropriate form for Masses, funerals, weddings and events. The carillon is also played on special occasions and generally every Sunday afternoon by its current carillonneur Adrian Gebruers.
