CASTLECOMER COALMINES,The Deerpark,Co Kilkenny
In this video we are cast back to the times when the Coalmining was a huge part of Castlecomer and the surrounding communities. We share these moments through photos of coalmining tools used, the people who worked the mines, and also see into the lifestyles of the coal miners and Castlecomer. Newspaper articles and documentation from the mines help to build an understanding of the times, enjoyed by many, endured by others.
Magical Woodland Christmas at Castlecomer Discovery Park
For a truly authentic, family Christmas experience, that’s local and great value, the NEW rediscovered Castlecomer Discovery Park is definitely one for the ‘nice’ list this year.
Located just over 90 minutes south of Dublin, the Castlecomer Christmas Experience in Kilkenny is a treat for the entire family, and the ultimate way to kick start Christmas feels.
Castlecomer Discovery Park has completely reimagined their Christmas Experience that’s bound to bring out the kid in everyone. With a jam packed day immersed with magic and festive cheer, and a woodland that’s totally transformed into a Christmas Village, it offers much more than a visit to Santa Clause, and is guaranteed to make memories that last a lifetime.
First stop is the excitement of a magical, rambling train ride through the winter wonderland on board The Santa Express! With snow tipped trees, twinkling lights and lots of other wild delights deep into the forest, the entire family will be mesmerised before reaching Santa’s Village!
A stop to meet Santa’s Elves is a must, who are busy preparing themselves for the most magical time of year in their arts and crafts igloo. Soak up the festive feels in the enchanted Elf Village with workshops and a woodland play zone whilst parents and grandparents can sit back under the woodland canopy and enjoy complimentary refreshments or mulled wine.
No visit is complete without fireside stories from Mrs. Claus in her gigantic igloo home to hear tales and stories of her life with Santa and the elves in Lapland.
Finally, it’s off to Santa’s igloo, where every family will spend special one on one time with the jolly man himself and receive a memorable gift.

In the first of two slideshows we travel back in time, using old photos to reveal the great hurling teams of the past, Olympic heroes, and the town folk, many of whom were heroes in their own right. You can see the effects of the fuel shortage, and images from many parts of the old town, and the people that made it what it was.
