<strong>Kilkenny<\/strong> is its <strong>castle<\/strong>. It is built by the river due to the strategic importance of the place to face the wars of the time, since it was built under the command of William Marshal in the first decade of the 13th century. Later, Earl Pembroke owned it. He was important because he wrote the Magna Carta in 1215, which was the first constitution in history. It was also owned by the Butler family of Ormond in 1360 and inherited by son after son for 600 years. It became the property of the Irish state in 1967 when the Marquess Ormond sold the castle because of its condition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, it has been restored and can be visited, without a guide it costs \u20ac8 adults, students between 12 and 17 with youth card \u20ac4, children under 12 free and families \u20ac20. On the other hand, with a guided tour it costs \u20ac12 adults, students with youth card \u20ac6, children under 12 free and families \u20ac30. Opening hours are from 9:30am to 5pm Monday to Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\"

church. It was damaged in 1651 by Cromwell&#8217;s armies, but was later rebuilt as one of Ireland&#8217;s architectural wonders. Within its simple gothic design it has a form of a cross around its central tower, many speak of the west door as the finest gothic doorway in all of Ireland. Today, mass and some major classical music concerts take place in the cathedral. If you like to appreciate the architecture of monuments on your travels, you can&#8217;t miss it.
