Ancient Abandoned Graveyard | Open Vault | Ireland

Castletown in Co. meath

Welcome, my dear viewers, to a journey through history and mystery. Today, our destination is an ancient graveyard, an abandoned church, and an old crypt. This is a place where time has stood still, where the echoes of the past still resonate in the present day.

As we explore this place, we will discover the remains of a noble and wealthy family. The crypt holds their final resting place, and inside we find two ornate coffins - one of which is open. To our amazement, we see a human skeleton lying inside the coffin, perfectly preserved as it was when first buried.

Beyond the crypt, we wander through the graveyard and discover the stories of the people who lived and died long ago. The abandoned church stands as a somber reminder of the past, and we feel a sense of awe and reverence as we stand in its shadow.

Join us on this journey through time and space, as we explore the secrets of this ancient graveyard, discover the fascinating stories of the people buried here, and contemplate the mysteries of life and death.

I did some digging, and found that parts of the original church (c1306), as well as tomb chest fragments from the 1400s (the half effigy above the window is one), are built into this newer one. And based off the construction material and method, the mausoleum dates to c1830. No idea who's in there though! You've done it again Sue, another gobsmacking discovery. It was an absolute delight walking around this place with you two. Take care. Deb of Oz XXX.

Watching from Alberta Canada and very much enjoying the tours. My father is from a small village outside of Bristol. Went to see the old cottage where he was born and went to the wee church he attended as a boy. The graveyard in the churchyard contains many of my relatives (Brock) and has my great grandparent and grandparents which appear to be buried on top of each other. So very interesting to watch you explore. I love the fact of how respectful you are towards the souls that rest in peace and the dignity you have for them. Keep it up.

It looks like what we call a Pepper Tree in the US. The vines are Morning Glories they are pretty, however they kill plants and trees with their vines.

I don't fear the dead, I fear the living. The dead can't harm us, the living will and do.

Ireland is beautiful, the green Isle is stunning! Thank you for taking us along on all your adventures, your accent is very refreshing! I always wanted to visit your lovely country but I’m to old and never enough money to go. Thank you and be safe, love from the USA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥰🙋🏼‍♀️

😯 Back in the day this place would have made for a storybook wedding site! Beautiful church on a hill with stone walls and greenery. The people in that mausoleum must have been wealthy and the social elite. I was expecting the jawbones to start moving saying: " How's it going?".😂 Could be one of your top finds. Great work guys! 👏
