A close up of the well. A strange looking folk art statue said to represent Colmcille stands with his hand outstretched to the right of the well.

Tobar Cholm Cille, or Colmcille’s Holy Well, is set high on the hills above the beautiful valley of Glencolmcille, Donegal.

It forms part of the Turas or pilgrimage route that traverses the valley in honour of the famous saint Colmcille (also known as Columba).
