Pilgrim Talk

About

An illustrated talk by Archaeologist and first Curator of Fermanagh County Museum, Helen Lanigan Wood, as part of the Lough Erne Pilgrim Way programme.

In her talk, Helen explores the transition from paganism to Christianity. She discusses new evidence for dating the double figure on Boa Island, as well as the unique sculptural and religious quality of the White Island figures.

The talk references the guest houses run by the island monasteries for pilgrims to Lough Derg and highlights the perilous pilgrim journeys from Fermanagh to Santiago de Compostela and Rome.

This is a free event but pre-booking is essential.
