About
Visit St Patrick's Church of Ireland, Ballymena—one of the town's iconic "Seven Towers"—as part of Ballymena's 400th anniversary celebrations. Built in 1855, the church is a striking landmark with a rich history at the heart of the local community.
Visitors are invited to explore the church and join short guided walking tours to the Old Churchyard, led by qualified tour guide and local historian Alastair Donaghy. Tours depart from the church on Saturday at 11.00am and 1.00pm, and on Sunday at 3.00pm, offering an opportunity to discover the stories and heritage of this historic site.
Reflecting the theme of Heritage at Risk, the Old Churchyard highlights ongoing efforts to safeguard vulnerable historic spaces. Currently the focus of discussions on preservation and protection, it offers visitors a chance to engage with the challenges of caring for heritage while appreciating its significance.
This is a unique opportunity to experience both the rich architectural heritage of St Patrick's Church and the evolving story of conservation in action.
