The Honan chapel (formally known as the Collegiate chapel of St finbarre's Cathedral) is a Roman Catholic chapel in cork, located on the campus of the national University of Ireland (also known as University College Cork).

The first stone in the Foundation of the future of the chapel was laid on may 18, 1915, and November 5, 1916, the chapel was consecrated in honor of the patron Saint of Cork - St. finbarre's Cathedral. The official name of the chapel is almost never used. And the name "the Honan chapel was named in honor of Isabella Honan, who died in 1913 and bequeathed 40000" on the construction of the Cork College dorms and chapel specifically for Catholic students previously had a separate room for prayers.

It should be noted that the construction of the chapel had just the years of the First world war and the final phase of the so-called Movement of arts and crafts. For Ireland, standing on the threshold of political independence from Britain, this period was marked by an unprecedented surge of patriotism and the revival of lost national identity. It certainly has the most favorable effect on designed to the smallest detail architectural and design decisions when creating the Honan chapel, where surprisingly harmoniously merged the traditions of Celtic art, the Ibero-Roman architecture, symbolism and art Nouveau. Some changes, or rather additions were made to the interior of the chapel in the years 1983-2001.

Special attention in the Honan chapel, undoubtedly deserves a colorful mosaic floor, made famous by the Manchester firm of Ludwig Oppenheimer, the tabernacle (the tabernacle), decorated with enamels Oswald Reeves, and, of course, the incredible beauty of the stained glass work of Harry Clarke and Sarah Parser.
