Lynch’s Memorial Window
The Lynch's Memorial Window is a rather macabre tribute to one of Galway's great history makers. A true story from 1493, in which the mayor and magistrate of Galway, James Lynch FitzStephen, hanged his own son from the window of his house as punishment for murder... The word "lynch" has been used ever since. <a href="https://www.go-to-ireland.com/what-to-see/lynchs-memorial-window/">[...]</a>
