Rothe House






Rothe House is situated in Parliament street, one of the main streets of the city. It is an example of a typical middle class house of the Tudor period. It was built by a wealthy merchant John Rothe 1594-1610. He and his wife, Rose raised 12 children in this house. The building contains an interesting collection of pictures and artifacts from Kilkenny's past.
