This ceremony provides a fitting end to Remembering the Armada, which takes place annually on Streedagh Beach, which is located along the Wild Atlantic Way in Sligo, Ireland.
Every year, locals and visitors alike assemble at Streedagh to pay tribute to the lives of Spanish Armada sailors, 1,100 of whom died on the beach in 1588.
In recent years, this event has also come to attract many Spanish people who come to connect with their ancestors. The Armada story at Streedagh is a complex one, which brings to mind a time of conflict, deprivation and at every step, a fight for survival.
The account of Captain Francisco de Cuéllar, a Spanish Armada survivor at Streedagh, describes a world which we can scarcely relate to, much less judge. Therefore, by paying tribute to all of the lives lost during those tumultuous days at Streedagh, we respectfully remember those souls who perished, and we hope in some small way that this will help build new friendships between the Irish and Spanish people who come to the event.
Filmed on location at Streedagh Beach, Sligo on September 24th 2017 by local television production company Omedia with soundtrack by Niamh Farrell, who sings the lament "Úna Dheas Ní Niadh".

Moran's Bar and B&B
Supervalu Grange
Five Star Fun Grange

Thank you to all our volunteers, too numerous to mention individually
A special mention to Peter Gau from Peter's Art and Craft Stuff for the painstaking work of hand-making the crosses and scorching them to give them their individuality.
Thank you to everyone who came out on the day to help make the commemoration so special and memorable.
Y a la gente española, siempre habrá una bienvenida en Streedagh para vosotros.
God bless Spain. God bless Ireland.
Thanks David, glad you like it
I very much doubt that God will be blessing Ireland anytime soon, now that you have enshrined sodomy and baby killing into law. As Ireland is now an atheist multicultural cesspit just like my own country (England) I offer you my prayers that Ireland and indeed England will one day return to the faith.
Larga vida a Irlanda, viva España. Gracias hermanos
Long live Ireland, live Spain. Thanks brothers
Gracias Juanje, saludos desde Irlanda
Grandfather born in Sligo. All the men down to the grandchildren are very dark. Can you tell be more about the Spanish/French connection to Ireland. Language teachers insist my name is derived from Spain or Basque. Pat GURRELL
Great story
One for the historians Patricia
@@patriciaconway1247 Your beatiful name is very used in Spain the origin of the name is from Roma the romans nobles was called patricios/patricias and in the roman Spain was used like a name for womans and mens until today.
Saludos desde España.
As a Spaniard with Irish ancestry I feel proud. Love Ireland
Great stuff, Fran, glad you likes it.
i am sure that there is plenty to be proud of ..
but not a bunch of arse-holes putting on fancy dress to do battle with an other bunch of arse-holes in fancy dress - for no other reason than for the entertainment and enrichment of their lords and masters..
This is when my Spanish Armada hundreds of years ago great grandfather with wavy dark curls climbed the cliffs to be rescued by the Irish. He married an Irish Catholic and he was Spanish Catholic. He taught his family the dance and hands by side it became the Irish dance. To this day. My brother was born with these beautiful dark curls.
Marcella Mcdonell whar donyou refer to irish dance? it is that with feet movements? my great grandfather was an irish militar from waterford, an important marine for spanish armada. my family like Ireland very much
I'm Spanish and one of my ancestors was an irish warrior, one of the wild geese who joined the Spanish army to keep on fighting the English
❤️Dios bendiga a tu ancestro español y a los irlandeses que le ayudaron a él. ❤️ Saludos desde el Sur de España
💚Good bless your Spanish ancestor and those Irish people that helped him. Regards from the south of Spain 💚
god bless spain irish and spanish brothers for life 🇪🇸🇮🇪
I'm Spanish and proud to see it, Ireland and Spain will remain united for ever, respects and greetings from Spain.
Respect to you too, hope you get to experience more of Sligo some time

Honor y Gloria a los caidos de la Armada Española.
Muchas gracias, Irlanda. Somos hermanos católicos.
Gracias
Sí, Bélgica en un pasado no muy remoto era conocida como los Países Bajos españoles. La pena fue que tras la Guerra de Sucesión española, Bélgica fuera adjudicada a la rama austriaca de la dinastía augsburgo, al igual que los reinos de Napoles, la dos Sicilias y el Franco Condado.
@John Johnny
Los belgas hoy Paises Bajos ,antiguamente se llamaban Países Bajos Españoles donde nació Carlos que fue rey de España y deciende de los Reyes Españoles Católicos.
Los Irlandeses son hermanos de España por ADN pues los celtas e Iberos migraron al norte donde fundaron reinos actual Escocia e Irlanda la dividida en dos norte y sur .
Saludos .
@@karinasarango7759 Very true what you say..Long live Ireland and Catholic Spain!!

Muchas gracias Irlandeses por acordaros de nuestros marinos y soldados muertos que son ya de los vuestros también. ¡Viva Irlanda! Un abrazo fuerte. A G F
Gracias compañeros irlandeses. Espero algun dia ver con mis ojos la bella Irlanda
As a Spaniard with Irish DNA I find this moving. Let's not forget that the Celts settled the North of Spain and their blood runs through our veins. Funny thing is that I did a DNA test and fair enough I have a good percentage of Irish DNA and I love it, specially after watching this video.
Que gran trabajo, estoy muy emocionada 😭. Muchísimas gracias por rendir este homenaje y recordar a todos los españoles que murieron en Irlanda. VIVA ESPAÑA🇪🇸 Y VIVA IRLANDA 🇮🇪
Thanks for not leting those Brave man be forgotten, god blees you all

Thank you for this emotive video, Irish people.
Thanks for the comment, glad you like it
Power and glory.
Aquí, en fin, la cortesía, el buen trato, la verdad, la firmeza, la lealtad, el honor, la bizarría, el crédito, la opinión, la constancia, la paciencia, la humildad y la obediencia, fama, honor y vida son caudal de pobres Soldados; que en buena o mala fortuna la Milicia no es más que una religión de hombres honrados.
Hola keydo. Gracias por las palabras. Aquí en Sligo es un honor para nosotros recordar a los caidos en una ceremonia sencillo, sin juzgar a nadie. Un saludo!

I'm a Spaniard with irish DNA and I've discovered that my irish ancestor was one of the wild geese.
There's a deep connection between Spain and Ireland even going back millennia.

Thank you Ireland!!
Thanks ignacio
On the fifth day there sprang up so great a storm on our beam, with a sea up to the heavens, so that the cables could not hold nor the sails serve us, and we were driven ashore with all three ships upon a beach, covered with very fine sand, shut in on one side and the other by great rocks. The likes of this had never been seen for, within the hour, our three ships broke up completely, with less than three hundred men surviving. Over a thousand drowned among them many important people, captains, gentlemen and regular officers....many men drowned inside the ships, while others jumped into the water never to come up again
- Captain Francisco de Cuellar
Amazing that de Cuéllar's words have survived for over 400 years
Gracias!
Thank you very much Ireland. I hope our ties and bonds endure forever and that more be created as time goes by.
Go raibh míle maith agat.
Tá fáilte romhat Jose, thanks for watching.

.....Gracias Irlanda,desde la Costa del Sol.
Siempre me han caído bien los Irlandeses .Cuando estuve de vacaciones en Irlanda conocí gente muy cálida e incluso salí en la Cabalgata del día del Hallowen que me invitaron a salir en ella .Estuve por toda la parte del Sur y es precioso . Son tierras como de Duendes , aunque no son campos como los de España , que son más ricos , allí las tierras son poco productivas.
Muchas gracias. Irlanda, gran País. Infinitamente bonito
Thank you very much. Ireland, great country. Infinitely beautiful
Gracias Luis, muy amable.
Gracias a vosotros. :-)
Conmovedor...Gracias Sligo.
Gracias Rita
Muchas gracias!
a ti
I was told years ago my ancestors were Spanish. The story is that when Phillip II sent the Armada Grande in 1588 - the family were traders, and provide 4 barques of ships. They were captained by the father and three sons. Then in August or September - the actual date is vague, the father arrived home. The mother evidently died either later that year or early the following year - it is said she died of a broken heart.
At least one of those brothers must have come ashore, and assimilated in to the local population. What I do know is his name was - Juan, or Pedro, or Jaimie, because that is the name of the three sons who sailed with their father.
My paternal grandfather's first name was James - Jaimie, and he asserted he was named after his Spanish great-great- ..... great grand father. He also had some 'treasures,' which he said were off the ship. As a child it did not really register.
Here I am 72 years of age and only recently discovered that my great grandfather was born in Drogheda, married my great grandmother who was born near Belfast, moved to England where my granddad was born, great grand dad died. Great granny remarried and had another son who died in World War 1.
May all who died in the Armada and other conflicts rest in peace.
Thanks Ireland
Welcome
The Royal Navy was defeated multiple times by the Spanish Navy, but History omits it.
Francis Drake, was defeated in Veracruz in the battle of San Juan de Ulua in 1568.
The Invincible English, invasion fleet sent by Isabel I to defeat to the Spanish navy, was defeated by Spain and its navy in 1589.
Edward Vernon was defeated in Cartagenas De Indias by Blas de Lezo in 1741.
Horacio Nelson, the great victor of Trafalgar, was defeated in Tenerife, Spain, 25 of July of 1797.
Before the Royal Navy was the owner of the seas, its predecessor was the Spanish Navy, who dominated the seas and made Spain the first global empire in world history,
and also has the merit of discovering the American continent.

Impressive video. Thanks for the celebration.
Glad you liked it Albrecht
VIVA ESPAÑA.
VIVA IRLANDA.
Viva!
Thank u Irish brothers
Thanks AMG
thanks friends
Tenía alguna noticia de ello pero no podía imaginar tal muestra de respeto y afecto, de belleza y delicadeza extraordinarias.
En cualquier otro país la gente de lo audiovisual haría maravillas a poca sensibilidad y amor por lo nuestro que tuviera. En España, el sectarismo, los complejos y el miedo a ir contra la dictadura del vaciamiento son losas que lo impiden. Hablo de las vacas sagradas viejas. Lo harán otros más jóvenes, frescos y, sobre todo, libres.
Gracias, Irlanda! País de San Patricio, misioneros en el mundo germánico, constructores de la civilización europea.
Gracias Javier. Es una gran historia. Son profundas las raizes que nos unen, sobre todo la gente de Sligo con España, en especial teniendo en comun una parte tan importante de nuestra historia.
Gracias Irlanda, eire you have a friend, SPAIN
Hi Christian, glad you like the video. Gracias!

God safe Hispania and Ireland

Amazing! thanks Ireland!
