Welcome to St Kevin's Parish Glendalough Co. Wicklow. This parish, established in the sixth century AD, includes the beautiful valley of Glendalough, the Glen of the two lakes. It was here that St. Kevin came to live as a hermit and founded his monastery, which flourished as a centre of prayer and learning for almost a thousand years. Our parish is steeped in a rich Christian tradition, and we are very conscious of our heritage.

This site is intended to give you practical information about our Church and the day to day life of our Christian Community.
