the Cathedral is on top of the hill, so it is a long walk. If driving, there is a parking lot to park in.

All the calendar shots of Cobh, the port town near Cork City, show the beautiful facade of the colorful downtown buildings with Cobh Cathedral/St. Colman's watching over the city. Spectacular! This trip to Cobh we finally visited the cathedral and took a guided tour. There are points of architectural interest outside and inside and the interior has some beautiful elements... More

The cathedral was beautiful. We stopped just briefly to go inside. I would have liked to have had about a 30 minute stop.

I have seen a good few cathedrals in various parts of the world and this is definitely a strong contender....absolutely beautiful inside and out...perked on the hill overlooking the town. I was lucky enough that there was a wedding on so the church was beautifully decorated with flowers.

Beautiful cathedral rich in history. The building itself is absolutely breathtaking. Went to mass there and the choir was nothing short of angelic. Amazing voices in that community.

the cathedral is so impressive it looks over the bay and took fifty years to build. the stain glass windows are fantastic and definitely well worth a visit.

Catherderal shop is VERY disappointing. Otherwise the cathedral is a must see. Bells are amazing. must see

Highly recommended that you visit this. It was the most beautiful cathedral I've seen, in all of Ireland. They don't even mind you taking pictures, inside. Be sure to say a prayer and light a candle.

Sitting on top of the hill, the cathedral welcomes you miles from the city! It's the first thing you see and the last thing to fade into the distance. We took comfort in knowing when our forefathers and mothers left this great island, that their eyes were most likely fixated on this beautiful church!
