Deutsch: Ein Mass Rock (irisch: Carraig an Aifrinn; deutsch: Messestein) ist ein in den Jahren der Penal Laws in Irland als Altar genutzter Felsblock. Solche Steine ermöglichten die heimliche Feier von Heiligen Messen an abegelegenen Orten im Freien.
English: A Mass rock (Carraig an Aifrinn in Irish) was a rock used as an altar in mid-17th century Ireland as a location for Roman Catholic Mass. Isolated locations were sought to hold religious ceremonies, as observing the Catholic mass was a matter of difficulty and danger at the time as a result of both Cromwell's campaign against the Irish, and the Penal Law of 1695. Bishops were banished and priests had to register to preach under the 1704 Registration Act. Priest hunters were employed to arrest unregistered priests and Presbyterian preachers under an Act of 1709.
Italiano: Una pietra da messa (Carraig an Aifrinn in irlandese) era un masso usato dalla metà del XVII secolo in Irlanda come luogo per celebrate la celebrazione eucaristica. Località isolate venivano scelte per tenere cerimonie religiose, poiché la celebrazione della messa cattolica creava situazioni di pericolo per i partecipanti dopo la conquista dell'Irlanda da parte di Cromwell (1649 – 1653) e le Leggi penali irlandesi del 1695. Banditi i vescovi dal paese già nel 1613 infatti, anche ai preti cattolici fu comminata l'espulsione dal paese e prevista, in caso di rientro, l'esecuzione capitale immediata. In alcuni casi furono anche utilizzati cacciatori di preti cattolici, persone che dietro congruo compenso individuavano e segnalavano alle autorità l'identità di preti cattolici che esercitavano, sia pur segretamente, il loro ministero in Irlanda.
