Building History
St. Flannan, the Patron Saint of the school and diocese, lived in the 8th century. The death of Flannan is recorded for the year 778. He is reputed to have been the son of a local chieftain, Turlough of the royal clan of the Dál Cais. His feast day is December 18th. He renounced his royal heritage in order to pursue a life in God's service in the church of St. Lua at Killaloo and was revered as a preacher. St. Flannan travelled to Rome where Pope John IV ordained him bishop, returning as the first Bishop of Killaloe. The shrine of Flannan contains his relics, crozier and Book of the Gospels and is associated with Brian Boru since he was born and reared here.
