Explore the many interesting features of this historic graveyard situated in Cavan's peaceful countryside. Moybologue Church and Graveyard are nestled on a hillside in east County Cavan. This is an ancient place, overlooking a truly historic landscape. Within its peaceful walls are the ruins of an old church, many memorials and other interesting features that hide an interesting tale.
The circular enclosure of Moybologue holds within it the ruins of a medieval stone church and many gravestones and memorials ranging in date from about the 8th century AD to today. However, the earliest stories associate it with mythical battles and and Ireland's patron saint. As the legend goes, Saint Patrick, who is believed to have founded the church in the 5th century, encountered a dangerous opponent here in the form of a man-eating pig!
