Nenagh, Market town in County Tipperary, Ireland
Nenagh stands near the Nenagh River with the Silvermine Mountain range to the south and Keeper Hill reaching 694 meters in elevation.
The Norman invasion led to King John of England granting these lands to Theobald Walter, who constructed Nenagh Castle as a stronghold in 1216.
The town maintains Ireland's first indoor athletics track at Nenagh Olympic club, which honors three local Olympic gold medalists through its facilities.
Transportation options include the R445 Regional Road, direct bus services to major cities, and a railway station connecting to the Limerick-Ballybrophy line.
The name derives from 'Aonach Urmhumhan' in Irish, referring to the East Munster Ormond Fair that established the settlement as a trading center.
