Garden of Celtic Saints Taking advantage of the lovely settled weather over the Christmas break I headed off to our neighbouring County of Fermanagh to find some wonderful places to visit and spend some time. I had read about The Sculpture Garden of Celtic Saints only a short drive away in Irvinestown Co. Fermanagh. This wonderful Sculpture Garden can be found just to the right of Sacred Heart Church, Lisnarick Road in the Parish of Devenish and is well sign posted with plenty of parking space at the Church. The Devenish Figures are a unique collection of wooden sculptures carved out of Irish oak. The figures of saints and scholars which include Saints Patrick, Brigid, Columbanus, Gall, Molaise, Columcille and Killian, are the work of Lithuanian sculptor Jonas Raiskas. Jonas, a native of Lithuania came to work in Irvinestown in 2007. He worked from 2007 until 2011 carving the beautiful figures for the garden. This is a truly special place. The workmanship on each of the wooden sculptures is outstanding with the story of each individual Irish Saint depicted in detailed carved images on these over life size figures. The Sculptures are protected from the elements in purpose built round shelters which in themselves are very attractive. Individual Sculptures of Irish Saints accompanied by written information are displayed in each House, on their lives and ministry here in Ireland and on their journeys throughout Europe, establishing monastery's and places of learning across the world. Lighting and carefully selected music are triggered by the presence of a visitor in each house to enhance the atmosphere and enjoyment of the sculpture trail. This wonderful, peaceful place is open all year round and is Free of charge. Donations for the upkeep of the Garden are welcomed. Do go and visit if you get the chance.

Finally got the time to visit this island and it was worth the trip. Got the ferry from trory jetty (5mins outside Enniskillen on the A32 towards Irvinestown) ferry cost only £5 per person with regular crossings. The island has a long history as a monastery site with one of the few complete round towers left in ireland with lovely views of lower lough Erne.
