Kerry College’s new town centre campus is located in a striking Georgian building on Denny Street - Tralee’s most elegant thoroughfare.

Denny Street itself was completed in 1826 on the site of the Castle.

Listowel - heritage town, market town and literary hub of North Kerry on the banks of the River Feale, has a long history dating back to the 14th century. Home to the Fitzmaurice clan, the town was built around Listowel Castle, St. John’s Church and its Market Square.
