Shannonbridge is a riverside village straddling the border of Counties Offaly and Roscommon on the River Shannon, Ireland's longest river.

Its defining feature is a magnificent sixteen-arched stone bridge completed in 1757, considered one of the finest examples of eighteenth-century engineering and masonry in Ireland.

Mooring points are available 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 months.
