Costello Chapel, Catholic chapel in Carrick-on-Shannon, Ireland.
The Costello Chapel contains a marble altar positioned in front of a single stained glass window, with decorated tile panels between burial sites.
Edward Costello commissioned this chapel in 1877 as a memorial for his wife Mary Josephine, completing construction in April 1879 with a dedication ceremony.
This memorial chapel demonstrates the 19th century Irish tradition of connecting personal grief with religious architecture through detailed craftsmanship and symbolism.
Visitors can locate the chapel on Bridge Street in Carrick-on-Shannon, with its entrance marked by two stone pillars topped with Celtic crosses.
At 16 feet long and 12 feet wide, this structure stands as Ireland's smallest chapel and contains both Edward and Mary Costello's glass-covered burial sites.
