Architecture in Armagh
The Cathedral of Armagh (Bed and Breakfasts, Armagh, Ireland) (Ard-Macha, Machas height) is the first church here erected. It was founded and given its pre-eminent position by St Patrick and is a small and almost entirely modern building. It was restored about 1840 by Archbishop Beresford, when the few remains of ancient building, which had till then escaped, were obliterated. It occupies a delightful site on the summit of a hill overlooking the town.
The body of King Brian Boraimhe; the victor of Clontarf (county Dublin), was brought to Armagh (Hotels, Armagh, Ireland) after the battle and buried within the cathedral.

The heroes of Ulster are portrayed to us as grouped together at Eamhain Mhacha (Armagh), under the leadership of King Conchobhar Mac Neasa (Connor Mac Nessa), in the House of the Red Branch, (Craobh Ruadh). Their assembly has been compared to the fellowship of the Knights of the Round Table under Britains hero, King Arthur. Click here for more information on
