Strategic Aim: To seek the protection, sustainable management and where possible, enhancement of heritage for the benefit of current and future generations and to promote increased awareness of heritage.
County Kilkenny has a rich and varied heritage. It includes our rivers, woodlands, landscape, hedgerows, our historic churches and abbeys, our medieval towns and villages and much more. Kilkenny’s heritage is that which makes the county unique, what gives it its special character and its ‘sense of place’. It is a reflection and expression of our values and traditions.
