The Tipperary Heritage Way is a 56-kilometre National Walking Trail that follows the River Suir, linking some of the county's most magnificent historical landmarks, including Cahir Castle.

A very beautiful church, magnificent on the outside, but rather modest on the inside. The roof structure is unusual and I liked it. Some of the stained glass windows are also very beautiful.

Burncourt Castle is a fortified house and a National Monument in County Tipperary, Ireland. The castle was originally known as Everard's Castle, and was built by Richard Everard, 1st Baronet (d. 1650), son of politician and judge Sir John Everard. When Richard married Catherine Plunkett in 1620, his father awarded him a large estate around the River Tar. Around 1639 Sir Richard some of his land and began to build a fortified house. It was complete in 1641, and had 26 gables and seven chimneys. Archeological investigation found a cow skeleton in a pit that extended under the east wall of the castle. The cow appeared to have been killed and dismembered and left as a protective votive offering – the flanks were placed next to each other and the head placed on the upper backbone. The Everards took up residence just as the Irish Rebellion of 1641 began. In 1642 Sir Richard joined the Catholic Confederates at Kilkenny and became a member of the Supreme Council. Sir Richard's wife Catherine remained at the castle. In 1649, as Oliver Cromwell's Roundheads advanced on Everard's Castle, Lady Catherine burned it down, earning it the name of the Burned Court. Sir Richard Everard went on fight at the Siege of Limerick (1650–51), but was captured and hung in 1651 by Henry Ireton. Burncourt was abandoned. According to tradition Burncourt was seven years in building, seven years lived in and seven days burning. In the early 18th century, the painter Anthony Chearnley built a house adjoining the Burncourt ruin. The excavation also showed that there was no remaining debris from the castle burning, meaning that the roof slates and lead flashings were salvaged/looted for use elsewhere. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burncourt_Castle

Ancient castle, the oldest part dates back to the 12th century! Today it belongs to the (English) Duke of Devonshire and is used privately. The beautiful gardens can be visited from March to October.

The old, friendly and bright church is worth a tour! Ask about the old library that is "hidden" there! The historic cemetery around the cathedral is also worth a visit.

Mitchelstown Caves was discovered accidentally on the 3rd of May 1833, by Michael Condon who was quarrying limestone when he dropped his crowbar into a crevice. He stooped down to pull out a few boulders to retrieve the bar, next minute he found himself looking down into a vast series of underground chambers, passages and caverns. https://mitchelstowncave.com/
