A CASTLECONNELL creative and historical writing competition has unveiled a remarkable story connecting the village to Napoleon’s death mask.
A death mask is a likeness of a person s face after their death, usually made by taking a cast or impression from the corpse
Castleconnell is steeped in history and heritage but when organisers asked for historical stories and tales of hidden history in a story competition no one could have foreseen such an amazing true story to be told.
The competition was judged by local resident and one of the most highly respected writers and poets in Ireland, Stephen Murphy. Described as the “new bard of the country” by none other than President Michael D. Higgins, Stephen had the arduous task of sieving through the entries but was satisfied that there was one clear winner, with three other stories claiming the top prizes.
