This arcaded structure built in 1761 is the town hall. Look out for the city's coat of arms over the lowest arch. A tholsel was a tolls hall, a mix of tax collection, courtroom, guildhall and city chambers. They're almost unique to Ireland and only a handful are intact.
The Tholsel, also known as the Town Hall, is a municipal building in the High Street, Kilkenny, County Kilkenny, Ireland. It served as the meeting place by Kilkenny Borough Council until the council was abolished in 2014. The Municipal District of Kilkenny City, the Borough Council's successor within Kilkenny County Council, meets at County Hall.
