Located right next to Christ Church, St. Audeon’s Church is designated as a National Monument as one of Dublin’s earliest surviving medieval churches. The towere alone is believed to be Ireland’s oldest and its three bells date from 1423. The church has an attractive botanical churchyard with flowers, herbs, shrubs, and plush lawn. Its 15 century nave is intact and the Church is currently undergoing restoration. It stands next to St. Audeon’s Catholic Church (1847). The Churches are in the heart of the walled medieval district and is the only remaining medieval parish church in Dublin. It was dedicated to St. Ouen, the 7th century Bishop of Rouen and Patron Saint of Normandy.
