Christ Church Cathedral in Waterford City

Taken on a December morning 2008.

Waterford - Vaderfjord - was a pagan Viking Settlement, founded in the 9th Century.
The Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity, Christ Church was built on a site of Christian worship which dates back to 1050 and probably before.

It was in the Cathedral on this site in 1170 AD that Strongbow, the Earl of Pembroke, married the Irish Princess Aoife, daughter of the King of Leinster.
This marriage which was to change the course of Irish history forever was the result not of a love match, but of a political and military alliance.
