More about St. Audeon's

St. Audoen's is the oldest medieval parish church in Dublin still in use today. It was erected in 1190 and is named after St. Ouen (or Audoen) of Rouen (Normandy). St. Audoen's parish was once the most wealthy within the city and the church was for hundreds of years frequented on state occasions by the Lord Mayor and Corporation, but in 1467 St. Audoen's was made a prebendary of St. Patrick's Cathedral.
