Howth Old Abbey Cemetery is one of the oldest burial grounds in the Howth area and is located beside the ruins of the medieval Abbey of St Mary. The site has been associated with Christian burial for many centuries and reflects the deep ecclesiastical history of the Howth peninsula.
The cemetery contains many historic graves and memorials connected with local families, seafarers and notable figures from Howth’s past. It is no longer open for new burials but remains an important historic and cultural site.
As a regulated historic cemetery, Howth Old Abbey has defined requirements for headstone materials, fixing methods and restoration works. We liaise directly with church and relevant authorities to ensure full compliance.
