Killarney House, Country house in County Kerry, Ireland
Killarney House stands in Killarney National Park, featuring formal gardens and offering views of the nearby mountains and lakes of County Kerry.
The current Killarney House replaced the original 1726 mansion that burned down in 1913, constructed under the supervision of architect George Devey for the Earl of Kenmare.
The estate functions as an educational center where visitors learn about Irish heritage through exhibitions and programs focused on local traditions and nature conservation.
The property opens daily to the public with guided tours available, including access to the restored rooms, landscaped gardens, and an interpretation center about the national park.
Queen Victoria selected the location for this residence during her visit to Ireland in 1861, influencing its position within the current national park grounds.
