Location

 
Claregalway is located approximately 12km from the bright lights of Galway City, on the junction of N17 (Galway/Sligo) and N18 (Dublin/Limerick) routes and 3km from Galway International Airport. Given its location, Claregalway has taken advantage of its prime site for development, growing from a quite agricultural village on the western sea board, to a dynamic, vibrant location & one of the fastest growing towns in Ireland.
  

 
Although Claregalway town has expanded substantially over the years, it still holds great respect & admiration for its culture & history, as is evidenced by the many historical sites located around the town.
Claregalway is home to the ruins of a Franciscan Abbey built by John de Cogan in 1290. It was one of the most beautiful of its kind in the country. The church consists of nave, choir, north aisle and transept, surmounted by a graceful tower, of which parts remain in good state of preservation. The archers under the tower are particularly beautiful, as are the windows and arcades. The old castle near by, with its massive square tower, was built by the de Burghs.
