The Nano Nagle Place Podcast
Nano Nagle Place is a beautiful heritage oasis in the heart of Cork city, comprising three centuries of buildings and gardens. Here is where Venerable Nano Nagle began her work to educate and care for the poor in 18th-century Cork. Here we tell the story of Nano Nagle and the work of the order of sisters she founded who followed her path of education and empowerment, the Presentation Sisters. Here too Nano Nagle's work continues through the community education projects The Lantern and Cork Migrant Centre. Discover the many great talks, walks and shorts we have created to help you discover Nano Nagle Place.
