Local Heritage Castle Durrow
and the surrounding areas possess a myriad of hidden treasures
of heritage and cultural interest for the visitor to explore.
The Village of Durrow was developed under the patronage of the
Viscounts of Ashbrook and is home to a number of historic buildings
around the village green. Castle Durrow itself is one of the
last large pre-Palladian houses to be built in Ireland and attracts
many historians from both near and far. Durrow Village has a
lovely, rustic atmosphere and friendly people. Nearby towns such
as the ancient city of Kilkenny, Abbeyleix, and Cashel are among
the most important heritage sites in Ireland and are a must for
all touring visitors.
