AMENITIES
AND ATTRACTIONS
Carlow
town, the county capital and gateway to the South-East stands at
the confluence of the Barrow and Burrin rivers. Tradition has it
that the junction of the two rivers once covered such a large area
of ground that a lake was formed, or, as some believe four lakes,
hence the name Ceatharloch or City of the Four Lakes. A strategic
river crossing round which wars were raged and victories celebrated,
the Anglo Normans signalled its importance by building the great
Carlow Castle in the 13th century.
A
bustling market town Carlow enjoys a thriving arts and crafts community,
an exciting nightlife, a strong tradition of Irish language and
culture and a superb range of shops, boutiques and restaurants.
