Mount Melleray Abbey is a Trappist monastery in Ireland, founded in 1833. It is situated on the slopes of the Knockmealdown Mountains, near Cappoquin, Diocese of Waterford.
It is famous in literature due to Seán Ó Ríordáin's poem Cnoc Mellerí in Eireaball Spideoige . James Joyce mentions Mount Melleray in the final short story of his 1914 collection, Dubliners. In this story, entitled "The Dead", the monks of Mount Melleray are noted for their exceptional hospitality and piety.
