Zusammenfassung:The Blackwater Valley Opera Festival, exhibitions at Lismore Castle and the Waterford Garden Trail have all helped to rejuvenate Lismore and the Blackwater Valley. One of the most popular draws in the region is St Carthage's Cathedral in Lismore, which is in need of conservation work. St Carthage was founded as a centre of learning and pilgrimage in the 7th century. The cro-zier made for Lismore's first bishop c. 1100 is now one of the treasures of the National Museum of Ireland.
