Knockroe Passage Tomb

Reviewed By livinit-lovinit1 - Dublin, Ireland

The Knockroe Passage Tomb is located about 30-40 minutes from Kilkenny. It is off the main roads a fair bit but worth a visit if you have time. These tombs are over 5,000 years old so just the history alone was surreal. The site is located on farm land but fairly easy to find if using gps.
