Tower and Cross Kilree

If you want to escape from the usual set of tourists that can be found in Ireland, and "discover" a silent, shadowy and evocative plaace that's full of history and legends (relatively easy to come by in the Emerald Isle), then this is the place for you! It's a cylindrical tower and a Celtic cross, surrounded by a cemetery with graves of all time, hide in a grove near the village of Kells, a few kilometers south of the city of Kilkenny. There is a sign indicating the path that leads you from the magnificent Abbey of Kells, also rarely visited. They say an Irish king was buried here. A lone Celtic cross a few meters from the tower, marks the spot.
