St Vincent's Church, Gothic church in Sunday's Well, Cork, Ireland

The church building features red sandstone walls with limestone quoins and green Irish marble columns separating the nave from its side aisles.

Constructed in the 1850s for the Vincentian order, the church opened in 1856 after delays caused by a severe storm that damaged the roof and walls.

The interior displays stained glass windows designed by Franz Mayer of Munich, representing significant religious artistry of the nineteenth century.

The building, now owned by University College Cork, stands on a hill on the north side of the River Lee, providing clear visibility from multiple directions.

The red sandstone used in construction originated from the Cork railway tunnel, connecting the structure to local infrastructure development of the period.
