The architecture in Ireland has been developed in various periods: from megalithic times, through antiquity, the Middle Ages, to modern times. Irish architecture has preserved elements of three significant cultures flourishing in Ireland which Seán Ó Duinn calls “three streams”: the megalithic, the Celtic and the Christian cultures. With the Celtic culture is connected the term “Celtic spirituality” which is expressed in: affirmation of life and creature, harmony of man with nature and cosmos, and above all in the divine presence in the world and in human life. The author of this article also indicates to its manifestation in Irish architecture. The author of the article characterises selected elements of Irish architecture, pointing to their meaning, like: circularity in general, circle (as a solar symbol), stone, corbel technique, round tower, Celtic cross, human head, sheela-na-gig. The author based her study on historical, archaeological and literary sources, supplemented with her own field works conducted in Ireland in 1995–2016.
