St Patrick’s Church, Dundalk From the Famine to the Second Vatican Council

St Patrick’s Video

Old St Patrick’s The first St. Patrick's was built in 1750 in Chapel St. This church served the needs of the people for almost a century. From 1843 it was used as a school and became the property of the Irish Christian Brothers from 1867.

New St Patrick’s Fr. Matthew McCann (P.P. 1817-1836) acquired the present site for St Patrick's in 1834. The cost of this beautiful church was €25,000 and it took 12 years to build.

Interior St Patrick's is built of Newry granite and was designed in the style of King's College chapel, Cambridge. Its style is pointed Gothic. Inside, St Patrick's measures 144 ft. x 72 ft (44m x 22m). It has one long nave and 2 aisles, finely chiselled granite pillars and a "ribbed vaulting" type of roof which was inspired by English Monastic architecture. Exeter Cathedral is thought to have provided the inspiration for the interior of St Patrick's.

Altar & Sanctuary One of the outstanding features of the church is the splendid mosaic sanctuary walls, which is reckoned to be some of the best work ever done by Ludwig Openheimer & Co. of Old Trafford, Manchester. This work was begun in 1909 at a cost of £2,000.

Bell Tower The campanile & tower was erected by Fr. M.J. Quin (Adm.1899 - 1909) in 1903. The tower was the gift of Mrs. Julia Hamill of Seatown in memory of her late husband John Hamill.
