​How Brú Chrónáin at Clondalkin Round Tower came to be

The Round Tower Visitor Centre, Brú Chrónáin , opened in October 2017 to promote the culture and heritage within the Clondalkin Community. The centre houses an interactive exhibition that delivers the history of Clondalkin’s early medieval monastery, founded by St Crónán Mo-Chua in the late 7th/early 8th century and the thousand years that followed. The centre also incorporates public gardens that reflect the functionality of planting in the past. Gallery spaces, retail area and cáfe appeals to both the visitor and the local community.

Members of the Brú Chrónáin community group will discuss the establishment of the Round Tower Centre following an investment by South Dublin County Council. The establishment of the centre demonstrates the cooperation of community and council to contribute to a healthy local economy.
