Kilfenora is a small village in North Clare known as the gateway to the Burren. The Burren Centre located in the village will contribute greatly to your understanding of the Burren as it unfolds the mysteries and delights of the region highlighting aspects of the Burren landscape, geology, flora and fauna. Kilfenora was once known as the City of the Crosses. These crosses date to the 12th Century and are all made of limestone. They can be seen in and around the Cathedral graveyard. Kilfenora is perhaps best known for its traditional Irish music and dancing. Set dancing is held every Thursday and Sunday nights at Vaughan's Barn all year round. From October to March, Set dancing classes are held on Thursday nights before the dancing and everyone is encouraged to take part. Traditional music can be heard most nights in the local pubs. Nowhere can one experience the true tradition more than by joining in one of the many sessions which by in large are unplanned, they just seem to happen as two or more musicians come together with their one love in common ... music.
