How old is Dolm church?
0
This has been an unanswered question for a long time. For many years, it was claimed that the church dated from the 13th century. This theory was based on a connection to an Irish Saint called St. Columbanus. Today, we can say with high probability that the Church dates from the late Middle Ages, most likely from the start of the 16th century. Both the architecture and written sources point to this. There are many things that are worth mentioning regarding the construction of Dolm Church. Originally the south wall of the Church was completed using wood and not stone. Perhaps the reformation of 1536-1537 put a stop to the construction? There is much to suggest that that was the case, but we can never know for sure.
