The Death of Cú Chulainn Statue

Cú Chulainn's Last Stand

Cú Chulainn - Hound of Ulster Statue

Behold the final, defiant moments of Ireland's greatest warrior, Cú Chulainn. This statue captures the most poignant scene from the Cattle Raid of Cooley, immortalizing the hero's legendary end.

Mortally wounded in his battle against the armies of Queen Medb, the Hound of Ulster refused to die lying down. With his last ounce of strength, he bound himself to a standing stone so he could face his enemies on his feet, sword in hand. It was only when the Morrígan, in the form of a raven, landed upon his shoulder that his foes dared to believe he had finally fallen.

This stunningly detailed statue brings that iconic moment of defiance and sacrifice to life. From the determined set of his jaw to the intricate folds of his tunic and the presence of the raven foretelling his passing, every element of the legend is present. The beautiful antique gold finish highlights the sculpture's dynamic form, creating a powerful play of light and shadow that emphasizes the hero's physique and the raw texture of the stone he is bound to.

A powerful centerpiece for any altar, bookshelf, or space dedicated to Celtic heritage, this statue is more than a decoration—it is a tribute to the unwavering spirit of the ultimate Irish hero.
