The cathedral of St. Finne Barre approximately has its origin in year 650, when St. Finbarr founded a monástica school on this place. The cathedral was constructed in 1870 in a French gothic style. The cathedral of St. Mary and St. Anne was built in 1808 in the neogothic style, although its tower, of 177,17 feet, was not constructed later up to 60 years. This magnificent cathedral was renewed in the middle of nineties to adapt it to modern necessities.
