Church of Saint John the Evangelist, Kilkenny, Gothic Revival church in Kilkenny, Ireland.
The Church of Saint John the Evangelist features a flat-topped tower, granite columns, ornate woodwork, and a decorated vaulted ceiling within its structure.
The foundation stone was laid in 1897, and construction continued until 1908, replacing an earlier parish church that existed on Maudlin Street.
The church maintains its function as a Roman Catholic parish within the Diocese of Ossory, connecting generations of Kilkenny residents through religious services.
Regular mass services take place in this active parish church, which measures 130 feet by 54 feet and includes a nave, sanctuary, and organ gallery.
A large sculptured panel above the entrance displays an eagle symbol representing Saint John the Evangelist, distinguishing this church from others in the region.
