Butler House 4.86

Formally the Dower House of Kilkenny Castle built in 1770.
This historical house is situated in the centre of Kilkenny City, adjacent to
Kilkenny Castle. It is an integral part of the Kilkenny Castle Estate and was
home to the Earls of Ormonde, who also built the castle, stables and coach
houses at the rear. Sweeping staircases, magnificent plastered ceilings
and marble fireplaces are all features of this 18th century house. The house
is a combination of contemporary furnishings and period elegance.
