Overview

A detailed walking tour of Limerick City's original and oldest site of settlement going back to the Gaelic clans to the vikings, Norman’s and 17th Century Settlers all the way to modern day, see it in detail in this natural island how the settlement moved, changed and progressed over time, how it was laid to siege multiple times in half a century, and how it still stands as one of the most anatomically correct medieval towns in the modern day. Kings Island on Limerick City has a dense history spanning over a thousand years as a city and town and many thousands more as a fertile hunting ground for the Neolithic people of Ireland.
