"Kinsale Regional Museum in the town centre of Kinsale was built about 1600, with additions in 1706 that included the frontage with the loggia on the ground floor. The courthouse was used for the inquest into the sinking of the liner Lusitania on Monday May 10th 1915. It was in this building that the Kinsale Town Corporation conducted their affairs and the Courthouse was also used for ceremonial occasions in the 18th century."

"A 30-minute drive from the city, Kinsale was once dubbed Ireland’s gourmet capital. Though it lost its way for a spell, this impossibly pretty little seaside town is once again on an upward epicurean swing. O’Herlihy’s Kinsale (OHK) and Saint Francis Provisions are fine and funky little cafes, injecting youthful spirit into a town that has been at the forefront of Irish dining for more than 40 years."
