Ennis is an ideal centre for touring around County Clare. Whether you'd like to banquet at 15th century Bunratty Castle, visit the delightful lakes of East Clare or explore the isolated loop head coastline, everything is a short drive from Ennis. Ennis is the county town and the main road junction of County Clare. Although an old town with narrow winding streets, it is a progressive business and marketing centre. The River Shannon and Lough Derg form the eastern boundary of County Clare. On the West is the wonderfully varied Atlantic coast, with mighty cliffs, caverns and sandy bays. To the north, this rugged coast rises nearly 700 feet above the sea in the form of the sheer Cliffs of Moher; here also is the amazing limestone district called the Burren, with its many caves, underground streams and rare flora. On the South is the broad Shannon estuary, where Ireland's greatest river meets the sea. The origins of Ennis date back to 1240, when Donnchadh Caribreach O'Brien helped to establish the Franciscan Order in Ennis, by his offer of hospitality to wandering Friars. The old Abbey, which was built shortly afterwards, is one of the most famous and beautiful National Monuments in the Shannon region. |
