Lissivigeen Stone Circle

Lissivigeen Stone Circle, Ancient stone circle near Killarney, Ireland

Lissivigeen Stone Circle is a ring of seven standing stones about 4 m across, set inside an earthen bank up to 2 m high and 3–5 m wide with an outer diameter of 20 m. Two outlier stones stand 11.5 m south of the bank, 2.2 m apart and 1.7 m and 2.35 m tall.

The circle was built in the late Stone Age or early Bronze Age and likely served as a gathering place for early communities. The careful construction reveals how important such sites were to the people living in this region thousands of years ago.

Locally the circle is called "the Seven Sisters", after its seven stones, an odd number typical of the Cork-Kerry series of stone circles. The Irish name Lios Uí Bhigín refers to the enclosure of the Uí Bhigín family. The monument is a national monument in state care, so visitors leave the stones and the surrounding bank untouched.

The circle lies in woodland about 1.5 km east of Killarney, with a menhir roughly 3 km to the northwest. There is no signage, so bring a map or GPS; the earth bank and outlier stones stand in trees and the ground can be soft.

The two outlier stones stand 11.5 m south of the earthen bank, not at the circle's entrance; they measure about 1.7 m and 2.35 m and are set 2.2 m apart. The sources record no carvings or cup-marks on any stone here.
