Church of our Lady Assumed into Heaven, Doonbeg
In 1976, the Church of Our Lady Assumed into Heaven was built at Doonbeg. This striking octagonal building, seating 500 worshippers, was specifically designed to suit the liturgical requirements of Vatican II. Once built, the bell from the old church, bearing the inscription “Me Vocante, Deum Laudate” (“At my call, praise God”) was transferred to it.
This church replaced the old cruciform church, which had been built in 1813.
