Irish Sign Language version - Aghalurcher Church and Graveyard, Co Fermanagh with Frank Roofe
Frank Roofe tells the story of Aghalurcher Church and Graveyard
Aghalurcher was used for over 1000 years as a place of worship, pilgrimage and burial. It is associated with St Ronan, possibly in the 7th century. The graveyard is one of the oldest in Fermanagh and was the chief burial place of the Maguire clan.
The Maguire family were patrons of the parish and they contributed to many modifications to the church up until the 16th century. There was substantial rebuilding in 1447 when the Annals of Ulster record that King Thomas Óg Maguire put a ‘French roof’ on the church and built the east gable. It is thought that this followed his pilgrimage to Italy where he was inspired by the continental architecture. Internal feuds within the Maguire clan led to a number of atrocities being carried out here. In 1484, Giolla Patrick Maguire was killed by his five brothers on the church altar, and two years later in 1486 Don Maguire was killed by his uncles and cousins.
