Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: Adagiata sulla riva del fiume Shannon, questa rozza pietra calcarea fu testimone del Trattato di Limerick del 1691 che pose fine alla Guerra guglielmita. La pietra era originariamente usata come blocco per montare a cavallo e in seguito divenne un simbolo delle promesse infrante del trattato, noto come il "Trattato Violato".
Punti salienti: La superficie butterata della pietra porta ancora i segni degli attrezzi del suo uso originale come blocco per montare a cavallo del XVII secolo, non un monumento cerimoniale. La gente del posto racconta che la pietra è stata quasi demolita più volte per l'allargamento della strada, sopravvivendo solo perché i residenti protestarono standole fisicamente attorno.
Consigli da insider
- Visit at low tide when more of the stone's base and the riverbank are exposed for better photos.
- Rub your hand across the stone's surface to feel the 17th-century tool marks still visible in the limestone.
- Don't miss the bronze interpretation panel nearby that explains the treaty terms and the stone's journey.
- Pair your visit with the nearby Treaty City Brewery just a 5-minute walk away for a pint of local history.
