24 Medieval Sites in 24 Hours: Kilkenny, Ireland Adventure

We spent just 24 hours in Kilkenny, Ireland and challenged ourselves to visit 24 historic sites in that single day. From Kilkenny Castle to St. Canice's Cathedral, medieval towers, witch trial lore, hidden alleyways, and an Oscar-nominated mural, Kilkenny blew us away with its charm, legends, and walkability. One of Ireland's most underrated medieval towns and one we keep coming back to. 📖 Read the full post with all 24 stops, photos, and planning tips: https://chrisplusmelissa.com/24-thing... 🇮🇪 Planning a trip to Ireland?
