about Kilkenny

Kilkenny (Irish: Cill Chainnigh) is the county seat of County Kilkenny, Republic of Ireland. Located on the River Nore, it is the only city in Ireland which is not a county borough, and is the republic's only inland city. It is famous for its many mediæval buildings and night-life.

Kilkenny has been referred to as the Marble City for hundreds of years, but the black stone with decorative white fossils that forms the backbone of many of Kilkenny's fine buildings is actually polished limestone which has been quarried from around the city for centuries.

The city is dominated by Kilkenny Castle and Saint Canice's Cathedral. The latter is named for Saint Canice, who also gave his name to the town (Cill Chainnigh is Irish for "Church of Canice"). The Statute of Kilkenny (1366) was got its name from the then Irish Parliament in Kilkenny.
