Delve into the shadows of Kilkenny on an enthralling journey through its medieval streets with this Self-Guided Audio Tour. Designed for history buffs and lovers of folklore, you'll unravel Kilkenny's eerie past filled with ghost sightings, tales of witchcraft, and the influential merchant families that once ruled these cobbled lanes. Starting at John's Bridge, this walk takes you past the murmurings of the River Nore and through the ages to taste the city's storied atmosphere. The path then leads to landmarks such as the Shee Alms House, St. Mary's Church, the ancient Tholsel, and the mysterious Butter Slip. Continue on to observe the grandeur of Kilkenny Castle, and feel the whispers of history within the walls of Kytler's Inn, home of the notorious Dame Alice Kyteler. The tour concludes in Irish Town, where you'll soak in the city's essence, one story at a time. Highlights include the last remaining Medieval Gate, the serene Black Abbey, and the tales hidden in the fabric of Rothe House. By journey's end, you will have discovered the true heart of Kilkenny, walking away with more than just memories - but an intimate acquaintance with its vibrant past and the echoes of its colorful inhabitants that still linger in every stone.
