West or Iar-Connacht, p.112–113, pp.283–293, Ruaidhrí Ó Flaithbheartaigh 1684; ed. James Hardiman, 1846. The Irish drinking song " The Hills of Connemara" has been recorded and performed by a number of Irish and Celtic-themed bands.As that year of 1847 had been the worst of several consecutive years of famine, it was to be understood that those missing tenants had abandoned their holdings to crowd into the workhouses or the emigrant ships to the New World, or they were dead; in any case they no longer infested the ground, which was left as a blank canvas on which Capital could paint a fair and profitable landscape. The N59 is the main area road, following an inland route from Galway to Clifden. A popular alternative is the coastal route beginning with the R336 from Galway. This is also known as the Connemara Loop [63] consisting of a 45km drive where one can view the landscape and scenery of Connemara.

Les Lacs du Connemara est une chanson de Michel Sardou créée en 1981 sur l’album qui sera plus tard désigné sous ce même titre. Le texte est signé Pierre Delanoë et Michel Sardou. Elle est composée et produite par Jacques Revaux. This arrangement continued until around 1800. While hosting Rt.-Rev. Edmund Ffrench, the Dominican Warden of Galway and future Roman Catholic Bishop of Kilmacduagh and Kilfenora, however, Máirtín Mór Ó Máille presided over an accidental breach of hospitality. As Warden Ffrench's visit was on a Friday, the Friar's was only eating fish and seafood. When one of the household servants of Máirtín Mór accidentally poured a meat gravy upon his plate, the future Bishop understood that it was unintentional and graciously waved the plate away. The future Bishop's cousin, Thomas Ffrench, however, was less forgiving and demanded satisfaction. This resulted in a duel during which Máirtín Mór was mortally wounded.

The famous " Connemara Green marble" is found outcropping along a line between Streamstown and Lissoughter. It was a trade treasure used by the inhabitants in prehistoric times. It continues to be of great value today. It is available in large dimensional slabs suitable for buildings as well as for smaller pieces of jewellery. It is used for the pendant for the Chief Scout's Award, the highest award in Scouting Ireland. [ citation needed] Clan system [ edit ]
