Across the River Lee on the north side of the city, St. Anne's Church (1722) is known for the famous Shandon Bells tower. The church still uses its original 18th-century bells, which have become one of the city's must-see sights. St. Anne's Tower is a distinctive landmark on the city skyline, with its facing of red sandstone (north & east) and white ashlar limestone (south & west). Visitors get the chance to ring the bells from the first floor, view the internal workings of the clocks, see the bells firsthand, and enjoy spectacular 360-degree views of Cork City and beyond from the balcony; although it's a climb of 132 steps, it's well worth the effort. In nearby O'Connell Square, the Cork Butter Museum follows the long history of Irish butter making. Housed in the old Cork Butter Market, highlights include an extensive collection of vintage butter wrappers. Address: Church Street, Shandon, Cork Official site: www.shandonbells.ie Getting there - 215 bus to city centre and walk to address above.
