It's an old Roman Catholic Cathedral. The crypt had originally contained the preserved remains of previous Bishops. The skull shaped glyphs indicate burials.

I agree - most likely Catholic due to the location. But as I mentioned above - it could have been Episcopalian too. They're very much alike.

I grew up Catholic while going to a Lutheran school, got married in a Presbyterian Church, and I've been to services at Lutheran, Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopalian, and non-denominational churches, and honestly, they're all similar enough that if I wasn't paying attention to Communion, and maybe on my phone for the rest... (okay, so Catholics have more holy water and incense and processionals and things), I'd be hard-pressed to tell you which was which, except for Baptist. Also, I wouldn't be on my phone during Mass, because it's rude, but anything for an example =P.

It is too small to be a cathedral and it did not appear to have a place for the Bishop's "throne". The term cathedral comes from the "throne" itself; "cathedra" in Latin means seat or chair (in this case the chair of the bishop). There is almost always just one cathedral in a Diocese and it is almost always a large church in a large city. Some dioceses have a "pro cathedral" or a second church for a bishop if the diocese is really large and he must spend time in both areas of the diocese--but these are rare exceptions. The little room behind the altar area was the sacristy where the church linens and the clergy vestments and vessels / candles, etc. were kept. You could see the remainder of the large "cupboard" which had long drawers to place church linens in. I doubt any of the tombs were the graves of bishops. It is more likely that they were tombs of families who helped found or build the church. The first stained glass window appeared to be of St. Francis of Assisi and the second--not completely seen--may be of the Blessed Mother. What ever happened to this parish church that it was abandoned? A new building somewhere else that removed and used the bells, crucifix, statues, etc.? And the graves abandoned to possible looters? Where was this old parish church located? The stained glass windows alone--if they had not already been vandalized by stones--would have been worth a lot of money. Very sad.

You make wonderful videos. I live in Texas and I will never get to see places you've shown. Thank you for sharing and being a gentleman.

100% agree! ;)

Leslie, my dear friend, ONLY YOU could view a fecal-covered, broken organ in an abandoned centuries -old church and say "it's covered in bird poop but it's still beautiful!" You are definitely one of a kind!! And may I agree 100% ..... Builders and specialized craftsman in general were certainly skilled! The time it must've taken to do this....amazing! And what kind of church would have skills and such IN the floors!? That place is a bit creepier than others I've seen you go into. Disquieting. Be well and safe travels.

i love that you don't have any foul language you speak beautifully you now have a new subscriber thanks for sharing

I'm so glad that the windows are still there.

I live in the US and love your videos. You have so much respect for your finds. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing it with us.

Wow, it looked like it was once a beautiful church. Loved the arches and columns and of course the windows. It looks as though none of them were broken! Please be careful in these old places. We don't want you to get hurt!

The skull and crossbones represent graves. The phrase is latin for rest in peace.

@Rose Treiger Wow! I've read almost all the comments and it seems we are the only one knowing that!!!! It's sad he haven't taken the time to clean the inscriptions and filmed them. I'd really like to know which church it is to do some deeper research. Authorities might have said they were doing archeological investigations here but it clearly looks more like they came to take/remove something important or that they didn't wanted to be found by the people. ;)

@@993bluezones9 absolute bullshit. skull and crossed bones is a common 100% Christian symbol that has been used for nerly 2000 years on virtually all Christian graves. Kindly learn something about Christology before spouting Dan Brown nonsense about some magnificent heroic secret knights.

I loved this video! What a beautiful church! I can't believe it's sitting there not being used (except by the pigeons). So strange to leave a big hole and not return it to as it was. Doesn't seem right. Loved the windows too! Thanks from Australia! Would love to c more abandoned churches guys!😀

So sad to see this church abandoned. It must have been simply stunning at one time.

I like how you are really sincere, serious about what you do, very caring...you have a very soothing voice...that helps alot. Thanks again.

I think those domes were built around a timber frame that was taken out afterwards Lesley, and the bricks laid in a special herringbone pattern. Keep on exploring.

This is amazing! Thank you so much for going in places where I can't go. I watch a lot of these videos. I am stuck in my house all the time because of spinal injuries. I wanted to be an archeologist but life gave me a different set of circumstances. I love urban exploring and would be doing it myself if I could, so you are doing people like me a great service. At least it makes living not so boring and I get to see places I otherwise wouldn't. My Mother used to take me to graveyards when I was a kid. Some of my happiest memories of my Mom. Thanks again guys! 👍😊

My family hails from Belgium and were Priests and nuns...this gave me goosebumps! Thank you..absolutely beautiful !!

Nice find Leslie keep up the good work, we very much appreciate these locations you find and show here in America.

I enjoy your videos so very much...you are so respectful of wherever you are at. You do not play annoying music in the video and you have a wonderful speaking voice. Keep up the good work!

It's a beautiful church ⛪.. Even if it is empty... I'm in awe... Thank you... 😍 the beautiful thing is that the windows are still intact

Always love your videos of these places you take us to. Thanks again!

Love your gentle respect, you kindness for the birds, you sir are a gentleman, thank you, 👍✅🥇🙏🌟

Great video! Love old churches!

Wow, just wow!! Great explore. And I'm super impressed at how you got yourself up through that little window like opening into the top. You are in great shape.

You need to take some pictures of that skull and investigate that and I would not be crawling on those domes you're crazy man love the video

I have watched other explorers videos, but you & your brother are my favorites. I love how you are so respectful & reverent of the property, & your love of what you are doing.

You guys find the BEST places, such rich history.

These abandoned church is great... thanks for sharing this video... 👍👍👍

Always amazes me the work that must've gone into these places only to be abandoned and forgotten This place looks to be abandoned more than 20 years Sad that it was used for so long and then only recently given up on I would like to see pictures of it when it was magnificent Tnx guys

Love your video's. Not so of some of the comments made here but that's life we have to live with. Keep them coming. I hope your brother had a good time with his girl friend. From the USA here.

Love the stain glass windows.. Beautiful done.

I'm 73 now but as a boy living in England, I remember a bit on the news that someone fell through the domed ceiling of an old cathedral 100ft to his death. When I saw you walking on that ceiling that story I heard came flooding back. Please be careful in these old places. Good luck and I will subscribe.

Fine work my friend!

gloves and masks...you make me happy

skull and cross bones used common in that time era in the religious faith . That man is Dust and dust we shall return . That our time here is short compared to eternity. In The New England states The Skull and cross bones can be found on many of the graves before the 1750s and can after wards be found with angel wings with faces . each stone told a story for the generations to come . What you have uncovered in Ireland is amazing as many of the catholic crypts Priest and Monks were Buried in the Church as each one that server or group had passed on to their Reward. Your so lucky to have that kind of Historic Knowledge where you are from and its a Gift to find it and come across it . I can not believe that it was disturbed 20 years ago as you never disturb The Priests or Monks Tombs or do what they have done . You were well protected in your discovery and documentation even if you have no Christian Belief . Awesome Video . Guys .

Beautiful place. Love the stained glass windows. Great video.

Wow... Awesome location!

Thanks

what an amazing place.

Awesome site guys beautiful it sad its in disrepair THANKS AGAIN 😁

great vid lesley, be careful those domed ceilings are just brick and mortar, probably not very structural after all this time!
