ARG Tour of the Mary Aikenhead Heritage Centre

Last month the group spent the afternoon at the Mary Aikenhead Heritage Centre in Harold’s Cross.

Mary Aikenhead was the foundress of the Religious Sisters of Charity and the multi-faceted exhibition at the Heritage Centre portrays the history of the Congregation in a creative way. Mary Aikenhead spent the last 27 years of her life as an invalid, communicating to her Congregation through countless letters. The focal point of the exhibition is Mary Aikenhead’s own room, where she lived from 1845 until her death in 1858.

Through audio-visual scenes and many short video clips the group gained an insight into the life and times of Mary Aikenhead, the spirit of the Congregation, its origins and its continuing expression today, wherever Sisters of Charity live and work.

We have fun classes and take exciting trips each month. Ages 55+ can join, just email us at ozanamhouse.activeretirement@svp.ie or call us on (01)874 2804.
