Skellig Michael is a fine example of the harshness of island life. This island has been a centre of monastic devotion since the seventh century.
Description
Description
This monastic complex, perched on the steep sides of the rocky island of Skellig Michael, a dozen kilometres off the coast of southwest Ireland, illustrates the very spartan existence of the first Irish Christians. The extreme remoteness of Skellig Michael has until recently discouraged visitation allowing an exceptional state of preservation. Today the island is a popular vistor attraction.
