Granite slab with a Celtic Cross
Summary
| Description |
St. Audoen's Church, Cornmarket, Dublin, Ireland
English: Granite slab with a Celtic Cross with round hollows in the angles and enclosed by a double raised ring on both sides which is nicknamed Lucky Stone and traditionally believed to have supernatural powers. O'hÉailidhe estimated it to be origined in the time frame from 840 to 940. It is assumed that this stone was brought to the site of the church in 1309 by the then Dublin mayor John Le Decer. In the 19th century, the slab was stored in an outhouse in Glasnevin cemetery from which is was moved in 1888 to its current position.
