Shannonbridge
Shannonbridge
Shannonbridge is a riverside village straddling Counties Offaly and Roscommon on the River Shannon, instantly recognizable for its magnificent sixteen-arched stone bridge completed in 1757.
One of the finest bridges in Ireland, the structure is considered a testament to eighteenth-century engineering and masonry, spanning the country's longest river.
Mooring points are located on either side of the bridge, within easy reach of the main street, making Shannonbridge a practical and scenic stop for river cruisers.
The village sees a notable increase in visitor activity during summer and serves as a useful reference point on the mid-Shannon, situated between Banagher to the south and Athlone to the north.
