Kilkenny: Medieval Mile Museum Self-Guided Audio Tour

Explore the Medieval Mile Museum in Kilkenny with an interactive audio guide on your phone. Discover the history of the city through artifacts, stonework, and civic records.
Step inside the Medieval Mile Museum and explore 800+ years of Kilkenny’s story inside the former St Mary’s Church, built on a 13th-century church and graveyard site.

Using an interactive audio guide on your own mobile phone, move at your own pace through artifacts, stonework, and civic records that bring Ireland’s premier medieval city to life. Child-friendly options help younger visitors follow the same big stories with age-appropriate detail.

Begin in the St Mary’s room and follow the building’s past with an animated timeline. Look down through the glass floors to see the foundations of a massive tower that once loomed over the city, and learn about artifacts and human remains uncovered during restoration.

Continue to the High Cross exhibition to trace the High Kings of Ossory, St Canice, and Kilkenny’s stone-sculpting tradition, from Neolithic roots through to later eras.

Next, make your way into the Kilkenny Room, where a glass window overlooks the city while you discover civic treasures: books, letters, petitions, and leases that record daily life in a merchant-governed medieval town.

Seek out the Liber Primus, Kilkenny’s medieval town book, then step into the Rothe Chapel, a richly preserved chantry chapel built around 1560 by the Rothes, one of the city’s wealthy merchant families.

Finish with a wander through the atmospheric medieval graveyard, now a quiet wildlife oasis where bats, butterflies, bees, and a mix of plants have made their home. Your visit ends back in the museum, perfectly placed to continue along the Medieval Mile trail outside.
