About
The tour centers around the tale of the Lynch family. Its a fascinating tale of how Walter Lynch is accused an tried for the murder of a visitig Spaniard who was a little too interested in his beautiful wife to be…or was he?
The story end in a dramatic climax…but you will have to take the tor for that finale! We also look at the legend of the Claddagh ring with a tale connected to Carribean pirates, North African slave owners and a gold ring that speaks of eternal love. Christopher Columbus makes his appearance too, looking for a new way to India, but worrying that Atlantis might stand in his way.
It’s all taken at a gentle pace to take in all the major places of interest and embed them into the story of our city.
