Chapelizod

Chapelizod

Chapelizod (Séipéal Iosóid en irlandés) es un pueblo situado en Dublín, cuyo nombre significa la capilla de Isolda, la que según la leyenda arturiana, mantuvo un idilio con Tristán.[1] El pueblo está situado al Oeste de la ciudad de Dublín, justo a lo largo del río Liffey y es fronterizo con la localidad de Palmerstown al Oeste, con Strawberry Beds al Noroeste y al Sur con parte de Ballyfermot y la carretera principal de Dublín, la autopista N4 y al Norte con el Parque Fénix quedando muy cerca del Crómlech. Algunos edificios interesantes del pueblo son la Iglesia de San Lorenzo y una casa llamada Le Fanu por su leyenda de fantasmas (No está completamente claro que construcción es ésta) y se rumorea que es la tumba de Isolda de Irlanda.
