1Gallarus Oratory
The iconic Gallarus Oratory is located in the heart of the Kerry Gaeltacht, on the very western tip of the Dingle peninsula. The Oratory is completely built from locally sourced stone and its shape resembles an upturned boat. Some believe it may be 1300 years old. A local tradation states that anyone who climbs through the tiny window is guaranteed access to Heaven.

Also, visible on the site are a sun dial, large stone cross and alphabet stone (inside the church near the chancel arch). Some fine stone carvings can also be found inside the church.
