Quotes & Facts

Kilkenny, an inland county, is bordered by counties Wexford, Carlow, Laois, Waterford, and Tipperary. Geologically speaking it is mostly limestone, with areas of black marble around Kilkenny city. The rivers Nore, Suir, and Barrow flow through it.

Kilkenny Castle was founded in Medieval times, but its most significant moments have been played out during more recent history. The castle was featured in Oliver Cromwell's re-conquest of Ireland in 1650; and was besieged during the Irish Civil War in 1922.

All-time top scorer in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship is Henry Shefflin with 565 points in 71 games, scoring 27-484.

Collectively, Kilkenny people are known as 'The Cats', most specifically in the arena of hurling
