what our visitors say
A gem of a venue...you get a real sense of the history and heritage surrounding you, playing in the church...
We did the bell ringing tour and it was an absolute privilege! Jessica did an amazing job of educating us on all this church had to endure to continue providing spiritual refuge. I would highly recommend booking a private tour if you would like to learn more about the history of Galway and the fantastic architectural features of St. Nicholas! Thank you Jessica for going above and beyond in educating us on the history of St. Nicholas and Galway!
This church is where Christopher Columbus went to pray. It’s a very old and beautiful church. Don’t forget to look up and see the blue dome on top! It’s amazing!! Old cemetery in the back that is worth checking out. The great thing is that it’s in the centre of town, where you can go any time.
A stunning historic church in the centre of Galway. Full of character, history, and beautiful architecture. Peaceful inside and well worth a visit if you’re exploring the city. Five stars.
