Drumcree Church

Drumcree Church is an Anglican church located in Portadown, Northern Ireland, known for its historical and cultural significance. It has been a focal point of tension between Catholic and Protestant communities due to conflicts over annual Protestant parades passing through a predominantly Catholic area. These disagreements have sometimes led to protests and clashes, highlighting broader themes of religious identity, cultural expression, and community divisions in Northern Ireland. The church itself is an important religious site, but its prominence in these conflicts has made it a symbol of ongoing sectarian tensions in the region.
