Quotes & Facts

Nowadays, Kilkenny Castle is effectively three-sided. One of the four walls - and one of the great round drum towers - has disappeared over time.

Where did it go? Well, the Eastern wall and the North-Eastern tower were blown up during the 1650 Cromwellian siege of Ireland.

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

The last witch in Ireland, reputedly Dame Alice Kyteler, was born in Kilkenny in 1280.  Widowed four times, she was accused of poisoning all of her husbands.  Although her former home was burned down, you can now dine at Kyteler’s Inn on the site of the house

The population of County Kilkenny is 95,419 according to the 2011 census ... plus an undisclosed number of Kilkenny cats.
As of 2011, Kilkenny had played a total of 371 championship games, winning 265, drawing 16 and losing 90. They had played Dublin the most times(82) .

All-time top scorer in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship is TJ REID with 641 points in 82 games, scoring 30-551.
