Nano Nagle Place Guide

Nano Nagle Place is an unexpected oasis of convent, chapel, old school buildings and gardens in the centre of bustling Cork City. Experience this stunning site through audio tours, maps, information, and a virtual walk through of the museum, gardens and graveyard.

Use the audio guide to explore the museum which engagingly describes life in 18th-century Cork before going on to tell the story of how Nano Nagle worked tirelessly to help and educate the poor of the city. You will discover how the order she founded, the Presentation Sisters, have travelled across the globe to continue her work.

Virtually take a stroll through our grounds which house a complex of beautiful 18th-century buildings including the convent that Nano built for the Ursuline Order in 1771.

Find peace in the gardens and pay a virtual visit the tomb of Nano Nagle in the Sisters’ graveyard.
