St Ignatius Church, Galway, Jesuit church on Sea Road, Galway, Ireland

St Ignatius Church features Gothic Revival architecture with numerous stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes throughout its interior spaces.

The Jesuits first arrived in Galway during 1620, establishing their initial school in 1645 before constructing the current church building in 1863.

The church maintains strong connections with Coláiste Iognáid school, where a Jesuit representative participates in the board of management decisions.

The church schedules three Sunday masses, one Saturday evening mass, and regular morning services during weekdays for the local community.

The adjacent Jesuit Centre for Spirituality and Culture, established in 2006, provides courses and workshops focused on Ignatian traditions.
