tutoe stone

Worth the detour of 5km to the north, near Ballaun, is a remarkable artistic relic of older religion, a national monument, the Tutoe Stone. This is a pillar stone decorated with patterns of Celtic La Tene design beautifully done
Believed to date from the first century A.D. and showing similarities with similar pillar-stones in Brittany, the art on this stone is generally recognized as being the finest of its type in Ireland.
