Arigna (Irish: An Airgnigh, formerly Carn an Ailt) is a village in the far north of County Roscommon in the west of Ireland. It is near Lough Allen (on the River Shannon), on a designated scenic route between Keadue and Sliabh an Iarainn. Arigna is situated in Kilronan parish, along with the villages of Keadue and Ballyfarnon. The area has a long association with the coal mining industry, carried out for over 400 years until the mines closed in 1990.
