An Grianan Fort
According to Historians, the ancient fort of Grianán of Áiligh was conquered and destroyed stone by stone in 1101 by Murtagh O'Brien, the ruler of the Fifth of Munster as a reprisal for the Ui Neill's destruction of his royal seat at Kincora some thirteen years before. In a few weeks time, Grianán will once again be conquered, only this time not to be destroyed, but to create an awareness of, and celebrate, the importance that this Fort has in Irish history.
The inaugural "Féile Grianán Áiligh" Ancient Cultural Event at the Fort takes place on Sunday 20th May to coincide with the Inishfood Festival from 18-20th May. More
