There are over hundred known holy wells in County Tipperary, but there may be more.
We would like to hear from anyone who knows of a holy well, its history, cures, traditions, pattern days and location.
Any information received will be added to the Tipperary Holy Wells database, which will be used to create a website.
The Tipperary Holy Wells Survey is led by Heritage Officer Roisin O'Grady of Tipperary County Council and conducted by Heritage Consultant Derek Ryan. It is an action of the Tipperary Heritage Plan 2017-2022 and is funded by the Heritage Council and Tipperary County Council.
The online survey will close on 31st October 2021. If you have any questions or comments about the survey or further information about the wells please email us at tipperaryholywells@tipperarycoco.ie.
Your help is greatly appreciated and invaluable in preserving Tipperary’s past for future generations.
Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey.
