Killiney, Coastal residential area in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Ireland.
Killiney extends along Dublin Bay with beaches and walking paths situated at an elevation of 30 meters above sea level.
The settlement originated in the 11th century with the establishment of Killiney Church, later transforming into a residential destination during the 19th century.
The name Killiney derives from Cill Iníon Léinín, referring to a religious establishment founded by a local leader and his seven daughters.
The DART train service and bus route 59 connect Killiney to Dublin city center and neighboring communities throughout the day.
The obelisk atop Killiney Hill commemorates the 1741 famine and served as a construction project to provide employment for local residents.
